Can he run? Yes. Anyone can "run." Can he be elected? No. Amendment 22 of the US Constitution says in Section 1 "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once."

AnswerGrover Cleveland is the only President to have done it. Twenty-Second President 1885-1889 Twenty-Fourth President 1893-1897 Answerwell the rule is, that you cant be president for more that two CONSECUTIVE terms. but nowhere does it say that you cant wait four years and then run again..but no one has ever tried it. i guess he could if he wanted to

There is nothing in the 22d Amendment about "consecutive" terms. It's two terms per President, period. Clinton and G.W. Bush are ineligible, Carter and G.H.W. Bush are eligible to run again.

Based on two interpretations in the US Constitution, probably not.

According to the 22nd Amendment, he cannot run for a third elected term. He could still succeed to the office, but only from a position lower in the order of succession than Vice President: according to the 12th Amendment, he cannot be elected Vice President.

---

If he were to be Vice President and the President died, he could. But having served 2 terms as an elected president, he cannot be elected President again. And if you are not eligible to be President, you are not eligible to be Vice President. So he would have to succeed following the death or incapacitation of both the sitting President and Vice President, i.e. from another government position, the highest position being Speaker of the House of Representatives. (Although William Howard Taft became the Chief Justice after leaving office, only two ex-Presidents have ever served in Congress: Andrew Johnson as a senator in 1874 and John Quincy Adams as a congressman in 1830.)

22nd Amendment (ratified 1951)

"No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once."

12th Amendment (ratified 1804)

"...no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."

He can not run again, a president is limited to two terms in office. The only president to hold office for more than eight years was Franklin D Roosevelt (1933-1945) because the 22nd Amendment forbidding more than two terms was not ratified until 1951.

Yes. Hillary is on a book tour of "What Happened", which is an update explanation of the Beer Hall Putsch, how she and America didn't loose the election in 2016 but was "stabbed in the back" and how she will eliminate all of her enemies in the next election. The working title of this book was Mein Kampf. Hillary is running in 2020.

No. Presidents can only serve two consecutive terms. FDR had four consecutive terms, but after him, presidents were limited to two.
