In America, presidents can serve for two terms. Since Mr. Obama has served his first term, he is running for re-election, so that he can serve a second term as president.
Elected 1800 & 1804
John Adams was the first Vice-President to be elected President immediately after his Vice-Presidential Term. He was the second person to serve as President of the United Sates, having been Vice-President during the Administration of George Washington.

In the usa, the president can serve up to two terms, each being 4 years. The president can only serve the second term if he/she is elected again.
In America, presidents serve for a four year period called a "term." President Obama's first term was his first four years in office, beginning in 2008. He was re-elected in 2012, and began his second term officially on January 20, 2013.
The first term counts.
The limit on the amount of terms a president can serve is two. Each term is four years so the limit on the amount of years a president can serve is eight. A president must be re-elected in order to serve a second term.
Not for his first term, but he did for the second term.
In 1904, when Roosevelt was elected to a second term, he promised not to run again in 1908, since his first term was almost a full term and he did not believe a President should serve for more than two terms.
George Washington was the first president to be elected twice. In fact, Washington had to decline to serve a third term and thereby established the precedent against remaining in office for more than two terms.
