What are the terms of office of the head of the executive branch

The presidency plays a pivotal role as an institution in American politics. Presidents play many roles, have tremendous powers at their disposals, and a large bureaucracy at their command. Upon taking the oath of office as a new president, he faces many daunting duties. The most difficult perhaps is living up to the expectations of the American people. They expect the chief executive to ensure peace, security, and prosperity.
