Thirty-second U.S. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt served the most years in the presidential office. He was elected four times, the first in 1932, the last in 1944. He died in office, on April 12, 1945, and was succeeded by Vice President Harry S. Truman. Presidential officeholding had been limited previously to two terms, by the custom of following the example of First U.S. President George Washington's refusal of a third term. It's now limited by law, through the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The amendment, which was passed by U.S. Congress on March 21, 1947 and ratified on February 26, 1951, limited the presidential term to 10 years. For a president may serve two full four-year terms as the result of election. And the president may serve a maximum of two years without having been elected, by succession to the office other than through election, such as through the death or resignation of an incumbent president.
