John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Martin Van Buren, John Tyler, James Polk, Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson, Rutherford Hayes, Chester Arthur, Benjamin Harrison, William McKinley, William Taft, Herbert Hoover, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and George Bush all served only one term (four years). William Henry Harrison, Zachary Taylor, James Garfield, Warren Harding, and John F. Kennedy all served under four years due to death by disease, poor health, or assassination.
I think James A. Garfield, because he was assassinated too early. From, Bryan Hollick Raleigh, North Carolina
Every Four Years
One presidential term lasts for 4 years. A president may serve only 2 terms (consecutive or otherwise) meaning a president may only hold the office for eight years total. The only exception to this rule has been Franklin D. Roosevelt who was president for four terms from 1933 until 1945.
Four years. This is called a "term." No president can serve more than 2 consecutive terms, but can be elected again following a term that they did not serve as president.
In the United States, the president's term of office is four years. For many years, presidents were expected to serve no more than two consecutive terms, but there was no law about it-- in fact, President Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected four times. But in 1951, the 22nd Amendment went into effect and now no president can serve more than two consecutive terms, or eight years.
One term is 4 years.
Every four years, but a president can only serve two elected terms.
every president is elected for 4 years is what i hear
Passage of the 22 amendment in 1951
In the United States, a President is elected every four years.
By law, Obama can only serve two terms as president which means he can only serve for 8 years. This means his time is up in 2016.
Four years but if the president wants to run again and wins he gets only 4 more years and that's it. 4-8 years in the office.
Four years. A president can be re-elected once for another four years.
The President is elected every four years.
The answer to that question is found in the twenty second amendment of the constitution. The president can serve for more than four years, however the president can not serve more than ten years. They can serve two terms (four years each). I can not remember how they can get the other two years, but they can.The term of the president is only four years. I do not know where you got your information from, but it is completely false.
The regular election lasts for four years. But the president can be elected again if he runs for president for a second time. If he is voted for president, then he can serve for another four years. That same thing happened to John F. Kennedy but he got shot in his second election. So he only was president for 7 years.
Every Four Years
Four years in one term, Eight years if he is elected for a second term, but in the US a President can only serve two terms for a max of eight years.
