Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) is the only president to have been elected for more than two terms, and that was before the law was put into place that a person could only run for a maximum of two terms

The Twenty-Second Amendment has since banned a president having more than 2 terms. Franklin Roosevelt's exception was mostly because of World War II.
