Franklin D. Roosevelt was first elected to office in 1928 when he became governor of New York State. His first presidential election was in 1932 at the height of the depression. He was elected three more times and served until his death in 1945.

He proposed and worked to enact a number of important programs including Social Security. An amendment to the Constitution was ratified in 1951 that limited the terms served by an American president to two terms. Therefore, no president after that date can serve four terms as did President Roosevelt.
