After a lot of people thought that Franklin D. Roosevelt had been in office for too long, they worked to create the 22nd Amendment, which limited the President to two elected terms of four years each. It is theoretically possible for a president to serve longer than 8 years, but only if that president was elevated into office because something happened to the previous president. Lyndon B. Johnson, even though he had been president for six years already, could have run for another term because he had only been elected once after the death of President Kennedy.
