Helpmepleaseeee
I did some research and it turns out that they can only serve 2 years in office after their 8 years in office as a vice president. Totaling the years that they can serve at 10. So there would be no point to try to run for the presidency after 8 years in the vice presidency. This is a newer law that is not known by most including me until today.

∙ 14y agoA person might serve for any number of terms as vice president and still be elected to two terms as president.
They can be elected President two more terms.
Four years. This is called a "term." No president can serve more than 2 consecutive terms, but can be elected again following a term that they did not serve as president.
The vice president of the United States is elected for a term of four years, just like the president. They are elected together on a single ticket. There are no term limits for the vice president, so they can potentially serve multiple terms if re-elected.
No, US Presidents can only serve 2 terms, even if unconsecutively.
A President can serve no more than two terms. In the event of someone becoming President during a term (if the President dies, is impeached and removed, etc.), that counts as one of the two terms if the new President serves at least two years. This means the absolute longest amount of time anyone could serve as President is nine years, 364 days.
The President of the United States serves a four-year term, and can be reelected once.
When elected he serves a 5 year term, and may serve up to 2 terms if re-elected.
An American president can be elected a maximum of two times. The Twenty-Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1951, limits a president to serving two terms in office. However, if a vice president assumes the presidency due to the death or resignation of the incumbent president and serves less than two years of the term, they can still be elected to two full terms.
A president serves four years in a term. Theodore Roosevelt was elected to two terms, so therefore, he served as president for eight years.
A president can be elected for two terms of four years. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt was president of the United States for twelve years, because the country didn't want to elect a new president during the war and the Great Depression of 1929.
That is what the 22nd amendment to US Constitution implies. A president can only be elected for two terms which means eight years, but a person who serves out the term of another president can still be elected for two more terms provided he served no more than two years of another's term.
