MCSE - [TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Correct me if I am wrong: I believe the term of office is 4 years but any given person can serve up to two complete terms maximum. I believe this came about at the urging of Republicans in 1950 when President Truman was in office, because they (Republicans) were quite annoyed at President Roosevelt getting *four* terms in office, even though he died about a year after getting elected the fourth time. Since normally any changes voted into law do not affect the incumbent but only his successors, Truman could have theoretically been around for many more years. So the Republicans got Eisenhower in office in 1952. He was an enormously popular president and the Republicans were sorry (in 1960) when he wound up having to leave office also because of those rules they (Republicans) had passed several years before. I do believe in 1968 when President Johnson was finishing his term in office, the Democrats were going to run him for a second (complete) term (recall, he finished the final year of Kennedy's term) but they would not let him do that, since if he *had* won (instead of Nixon) his two complete terms *plus the extra time left over from Kennedy* would have run him past the statuatory length of time allowed in office, under the new rules. PAT]Oy, are you wrong. The amendment states that a person can only beelected to the presidency twice. It then continues that a person whotakes over for a president, and is president for more than 2 yearsbefore the election, is ineligible for a second election. In otherwords, one can serve a year (November 22, 1963 to January 1965), andbe re-elected in November 1964 and November 1968.Johnson removed himself from the election after the strong showing ofEugene McCarthy in the New Hampshire primary. Johnson then watchedthe Democratic coalition fall apart, as Bobby Kennedy declared for thepresidency, and threatened to split the party, and allow theRepublicans to win the election. He declared that he would not runagain, leaving the nomination open, and leading to the chaos ofChicago 1968, and the election of Nixon.
