I'm sorry but I have to disagree with you, term limits is the only way to assure you a person won't stay in power. No one can assure you that a good person can't get corrupted by power. And even if one person turns to be good for several cosecutive terms, what happens when that person dies or wants out? You'll have to choose a new person without knowing if that person has good values or not and that if he/she would try to stay in power by unlawful means, that's a risk I wouldn't like having.
One of the most dangerous things a person can think is that only one person can be a good president, there are a lot of good people suitable for the job, you can choose people with impeccable politial careers, people with new ideas from the new generations, that's the beauty of term limits
