Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During George Washington's presidency, there were no term limits set for the President of the United States. He voluntarily stepped down after two terms, leading to the tradition of Presidents serving a maximum of two terms, which was later codified into law by the 22nd Amendment in 1951. Therefore, it would have been possible for Washington to take on a third term if he had chosen to do so.
