According to the US Constitution, a president must be elected every four years. To become a US president, you must …

• be 35 or older,

• be a US citizen born in the USA,

• have lived in the USA at least 14 years.

You can only serve two terms. This means you can be a president twice. This became a law in 1951. Before that, the law was different. In fact, Franklin D.Roosevelt became a president in 1933 and was still president when he died in 1945.

The US president is not the only person with power. The US government is divided into three parts: the President, the Supreme Court and the Congress. There are two houses of Congress: the Senate, which has 100 members called “senators”, and the House Representatives, which has 435 members.
