Even during the Civil War elections were not canceled, and it certainly isn't going to happen this time around.
FDR broke precedent by serving 4 terms... The elite bankers need thier puppet Obama to stay in office... The GOP have nobody who won't be exposed as a banker puppet... Except Ron Paul...

Thus, Roosevelt was the only President to have served more than two terms.
What are you trying to say?

There is absolute proof that there were presidential elections in 1940 and 1944.

You don't know that, and there is no way you can prove it.
