is there an American president who was elected three times in a row?

Answer 1

FDR won 4 elections but that's mainly because of the war. And don't read the rubbish of limitations imposed. It was passed in 1953, long after FDR died.

And the Senate was led by Lyndon Johnson a Democrat (Senate Majority Leader). The decision to limit Presidential terms was passed with agreement from both sides, in both chambers.

Answer 2

Franklin Delano Roosevelt won Four Elections in a Row - - - in response The Republicans rammed through an ammendment barring future Presidents from attempting to the same. Now The Republicans are planning to repeal that ammendment so they can elect Geo W to a third term. Go Figure. Peace.

PS - - - Grover Cleveland won one election, became President, lost the next election by a small number, left office, and then was reelected after a third election, defeating the man who has ousted him. Peace.

Answer 3

Yes, Franklin D. Roosevelt.
He served four terms, but did not finish the last one, because he died in office. He was succeeded by his VP Harry Truman.
Roosevelt was elected four times in a row because of WWII going on and it is never a good idea to change horses in the middle of a race.
After WWII a law (the 22nd. Amendment to the Constitution to be exact) was passed that says:
"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."

Answer 4

Roosevelt won Four Elections in a row - - -and therefter the law has been changed and Now there is prohibition to contest, for third term, but the Republicans are planning to repeal that Law so that they can get elect Mr. George W Bush for third term.

Answer 5

Yes, the 32nd president of USA; Roosevelt, who was was elected to four terms in office.

Then the term was amended for presidential term limit.

Amendment XXII
----------------------
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. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President, when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.

Section 2
This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years from the date of its submission to the States by the Congress.

Answer 6

Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected 4 times, this led to the passage of the 22 amendment on term limits.

Answer 7

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) was elected to 4 terms. He was also the only president to have been elected to 3 terms.

Answer 8

Actually it was not too long to have a president for four terms, it was that people were fed up with someone who instituted his irrational policies. Now if we can do at least the same for congress, but I would suggest one term, they are far more harmful to this country than a president.

Answer 9

Yes. Franklin Delano Roosevelt. After his third term, he made it a law that presidents could not serve more than two terms because it is just too long!

Answer 10

Yes. F.D.R. Then an amendment to the constitution disallowed it.
