The maximum length of time a person could actually be President (assuming the relevant laws do not change in the meantime) is just under 10 years. A President may only serve two terms, and if a Vice-President becomes President with more than two years remaining in the term it counts as a full term. If there are LESS than two years remaining, then it doesn't count as a full term, so a Vice President could become President, serve just under 2 years, and then be elected twice more and serve an additional 8 years.
