Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) is the reason why we have the 22nd Amendment, which restricts the presidential term to 2 terms, and a maximum of 10 years. For example: If a president dies after 2 years in office [exactly], then his vice president takes office to complete his term. Then, this vice president could still run for office for another 2 terms, which will be a max of 10 years.
Those who prompted the limits on presidential terms are those who opposed FDR, and didn't want to have a president serve for 4 terms again.
