because he did a good job
Franklin Roosevelt
FDR was elected in 1932, defeating incumbent President Herbert Hoover. The Great Depression hit while Hoover was in office, and many Americans blamed him for it.
During President Franklin Roosevelt's time in office, there were no term limitations. Presidential term limtations came into effect with the 22nd Amendment to the Consitiution which was ratified on February 27, 1951. FDRs time in office was from 1933 to 1945.
He was a kind of "Father Figure" for many Americans, partly because of his length in office, and partly for his familiar fire side chats.
Nothing as he died in office.
1852

President Franklin D. Roosevelt served 12 years in office.
The restrictions against African Americans taking office was removed many many years ago. As such, there was no legal restriction on an African American taking the highest office in the United States.
Ben Franklin didn't invent the united states post office but was named the first united states post office general. So he was a big part of making the post office.
