Is incumbency really that big an advantage? The circumstances some, Clinton, W. Bush and Obama’s second terms were quite unique and prior to those 3 only 13 others have done the consecutive terms thing. Out of 44.
14 Presidents serving at least 2 terms, FDR elected 4 times, Cleveland having 2 non-consecutive terms, then Nixon was elected twice and removed. McKinley and Lincoln elected twice and assassinated.

I dunno… Two terms seems to be more common than that…
