The comedic geniuses over at Cracked explained why winning a second Presidential term in America isn’t all that great:

• Being President is so physically demanding that those who lose re-election live longer. Most of the longest living Presidents in history led one-term administrations.
• The second term President’s party does badly which means a difficult Presidential term. For reasons that are unclear Americans vote against the President’s party in mid-terms during their second year, making it harder to get legislation passed.
• It hurts the chances of the President’s favoured successor. After a two term President leaves the White Office somebody from another party is usually voted in.
• The scandals begin to pile up and leak out. Watergate, Iran-Contra and Monica Lewinsky were all scandals that began to emerge during the second terms of administrations.
