Franklin Roosevelt was the only one to serve more than two terms and will remain the only one unless the Constitution is changed.
Only one and that was Franklin Roosevelt.
United States presidents are elected to terms that last 4 years. George Washington served 2 terms (8 years) setting the precedent for all subsequent presidents until FDR - who was elected to 4 terms but died during his 4th. Shortly thereafter, the Constitution was amended to limit all future presidents to a maximum of 2 terms unless they were first elected vice president and then assumed office when the president they are serving under leaves office with less than half his term remaining. In that case then can finish the unexpired term and then serve two additional full terms for a total of just less than 10 years maximum. No president since FDR has served more than 8 years.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt served three terms and died during his fourth, in 1945

All of these presidents served more than one term except for Carter. Jimmy Carter was president from the years of 1977 to 1981.
GEORGE WASHING TO AND ALL THE MOST OF THE PRESIDENTS THERE ARE 10 PRESIDENTS THAT SERVED TWO TERMS
Franklin Delano Roosevelt served four terms. He died in his forth term serving a total of 12 years. He was the only President to do so. Most Presidents had followed George Washington's example and only served up to two terms. After Roosevelt, Congressed passed the law prohibiting a president from running in a third term.
He has already served more than two years; he was elected in 2008, and he has served nearly four years; in January 2013, he will begin to serve for another four years. I think you are asking if he will serve more than two "terms"-- but he cannot. Presidents are not allowed to serve for more than two terms, according to the 26th amendment to the Constitution.
No. The longest most Presidents have served is 8 years, and Franklin D. Roosevelt was in office for just over 12 years. Even if someone had been U. S. President for 10 years, he would not have served a 10-year term. All U. S. Presidential terms are and have been 4 years. Those who served more than 4 years served multiple terms.
Gerald Ford was only president for 2 years and 5 months. Whoever told you he served longer than 8 years is incorrect.
