In case something happens to the governor, or when the governor is out of the state, the Lt. governor would be in charge. It is like a vice president

The entire world cannot be governed by one person.Even if the masses elect him it would not be a good idea to have the world governed by a single person.

thats too long. means we'd have 12 years of bush. look at what a disaster the last 5 have been. 8 years of clinton & 4 of bush sr.\nthe last 20 years of this nation was ruled by only 3 men, thats bad.

Yes.  Until the 1930s, Presidents voluntarily limited themselves to 2 terms, following the example of George Washington.  Then the great Liberal Democrat hero, Franklin D. Roosevelt decided he was going to be president for life (died in office during his 4 th term).  So the Constitution was amended in 1951 (the 22nd Amendment) to limit people to two (total) terms.

It could be possible. The Consitution says the President can only be ELECTED to no more than 2 terms. \n\nIf the current President served as Vice President and due to an illness, death, or some other situation where the previous President could no longer function, than the Vice President would become President.\n\nOnly Franklin Delanore Roosevelt served more than 2 terms. He was elected for 4 terms and served 3 full terms and a few months of the 4th term. \n\nThe consitution was admended after his death to limit a President to only 2 terms.

Ford, Carter, Bush, Clinton and Bush make five living US Presidents.

Yes.  President Harrison (9th president) was only in office for 32 days.  He caught pneumonia during his inauguration speech, and died a month later.

No, daddy George has been in control from the beginning. These same people have been in power for many, many years. If one bothers to look at old photos starting with Ford, you see the same people. Bush Sr., Cheney, Rumsfeld, Jim Baker. These people have been at the top of government for at least twenty years. You don't get things this screwed up in six years, even with W. at the helm. This has been a long time in the making. This past election has stopped them from putting the final nail in our coffin.

As far as I know there is only 1 president.  Unless you are referring to the president of the Kiwanis Club, Lions Club, etc.  And I couldnt start to count that many people.

World Peace! No just kidding!  This is a hard question.\nIt's not like a class president can change anything about a school so don't promise crazy things but the class needs someone to represent them.  \nHow about   !!SOPHIA REPRESENTING CLASS OF 20??!!

That depends. President of what country? It's 4, here in the U.S.

Only one, FDR.  That was before the 2 term limit.  He served 4 terms for 12 years, and died in office.\n\nBefore Franklin D Roosevelt, serving 8 years was just a tradition.  It started with George Washington, and people were so impressed that a man could just give up power, that they expected it of all presidents.\n\nNow the limit is 8 years.

Presidents don't get thrones, they work for the people who elected them like you and me. \n\nSure, a president can resign.  The president of the Philippines is elected for a six year term.  If the current president, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, resigns then the vice president, (Manuel) Noli De Castro takes over the office of president.   \n\nThe president can only serve one term under the new (1987) Constitution.

The elected offices of the executive branch are president and vice president. They both must be a natural born citizen, be 35 years old, and have been a resident of the country for the past 14 years. A president can be elected to two terms of 4 years each, while the vice president serves 4 years and has no term limit. If the vice president succeeds to the office of president due to the president's death, resignation, or impeachment, and serves in that capacity for less than two years, he/she can then be elected to two terms as president, meaning that 10 years is the maximum possible.\n\nAside from those two positions, there are the several cabinet members and heads of various departments, all of which are appointed. There are thus no qualifications per se, as each administration decides what they should be.
