Theodore Roosevelt ran for a third term under his Bull Moose party, but lost the election to Woodrow Wilson. Franklin Delano Roosevelt ran for 4 terms and won them all, but he died in office during his 4th term. After his death, Congress passed the 22nd Amendment which set a limit of 2 terms for the presidency.
