How long is the term for a U.S. President?

The term for a U.S. President is four years, as specified in the Constitution. This duration was established to provide a balance between enabling a president to implement policies and the need for regular opportunities for voters to express their approval or disapproval of a president's performance. This four-year term allows for sufficient time to enact an agenda while also ensuring accountability through elections. The possibility of serving a maximum of two terms, which totals eight years, is a separate provision intended to prevent any individual from holding too much power for an extended period.
