As a group one-term presidents are not so successful which is why they were one-term presidents. Polk refused to run for a second term and he was probably the most successful one-termer. Taft would very probably have won a second term if Theodore Roosevelt had supported him instead of breaking with with his party and running as an independent against him.
Some Presidents served more than one term.
American presidents who are re-elected are required to repeat the oath of office.
Yes on January 21, 2012 since January 20 is on a Sunday. Actually, by law (the 20th Amendment to the Constitution), Inaugural Day is ALWAYS the 20th of January in the year following the general election. All president's terms end at noon on Jan 20th, and thus, that day is always Inaugural Day. To answer the question, yes, even for a President who has been re-elected, there is always an Inaugural Day, as they don't get their term extended, but rather get a whole new term, and Inaugural Day officially starts that new term.
5 of the first 10 presidents were re-elected for a second term.
