Cleveland lost his re-election bid in 1888 but won again in 1992. Nixon ran for president and lost in 1960 but won in 1968 and again in 1972. Jackson lost in a 4-man race in 1824, then won in 1828 and again in 1832. Jefferson came in second in 1796 but won in 1800 and 1804. I think these are all the losing presidential candidates who came back to win. Lincoln, Hayes and maybe others lost an election before winning the big one.
Also, William Henry Harrison lost to Martin Van Buren in 1836 but beat him in 1840.

Duration of a office of American president?
There is no fixed length of the office of president world-wide; there are several nations that have presidents. In the United States the standard term is 4 years in length, starting January 20 following the November elections. A US president can currently be elected to 2 terms and no more. However, a US president could serve up to 10 years. If the next-in-line takes the office of president from a president who is no longer able to serve, and if the time left is less than half of the term, the new president may still run for and serve two terms of his/her own. If the time left is more than half of the former president's term, the new president can run for only one four-year term of his/her own.
