How many times is the president limited to how many terms in the office?
The limit is two four-year terms of office. The rule was not officially in place, but each President at the time abided by this rule. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was the exception where he served a total of four terms in office. The 22nd Amendment was then adopted after World War II which restricts a sitting President to only two four-year terms of office.
What is the maximum amount of time one person can be president?
Oh, dude, the maximum amount of time one person can be president is like, two terms, which is like, 8 years total. So, if someone tries to stick around longer than that, they're breaking the rules. But hey, who needs more than 8 years in that stressful job anyway, am I right?
