The President of the United States is elected for how many years?

Why this is the answer

A President is elected for four years. Article II sets the term at the start of its first section, and gives the Vice President the same four-year term. Presidential elections are held in November, and the new term begins at noon on January 20, the date fixed by the 20th Amendment. The 2008 study lessons explain where the choice came from: early American leaders thought the British king had too much power, so they limited the head of the new government, in part by having the people elect a President every four years. A President can be reelected once, so the most anyone can be elected to serve is eight years. The President is not chosen by a single national count. Under Article II, each state appoints a number of electors equal to its senators and representatives combined, and those electors vote by ballot for President and Vice President. To be eligible, a person must be a natural born citizen, at least 35 years old, and a resident of the United States for at least fourteen years. Applicants who use the 65/20 special consideration also need it, since it carries one of the 20 asterisks on the list. The mix-ups are predictable. Two years is a House term and six is a Senate term, both set in Article I. Eight is the limit across two presidential terms, not the length of one. If a number other than four comes to mind, ask which office it belongs to before you say it. The officer only needs the number, and "four years" is the whole answer.
