Answer
Gerald Ford - 5. Resigned Jimmy Carter - 6. Defeated in election Ronald Reagan - 3. Term limited George H.W. Bush - 6. Defeated in election Bill Clinton - 2. Impeached with subsequent conviction in Senate (Note: This is incorrect; Bill Clinton was impeached but not removed from office) Herbert Hoover - 6. Defeated in election
Key Concept
Understanding the circumstances under which U.S. Presidents have left office is important for grasping the political history and constitutional framework of the United States.
Explanation
Gerald Ford became president after Richard Nixon's resignation and later lost his bid for election. Jimmy Carter was defeated by Ronald Reagan in the 1980 election. Ronald Reagan served two terms and was term-limited. George H.W. Bush lost the 1992 election to Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton was impeached by the House of Representatives but was acquitted by the Senate and thus completed his second term. Herbert Hoover was defeated in the 1932 election by Franklin D. Roosevelt.


Please note that there is a correction to be made regarding Bill Clinton: he was indeed impeached by the House of Representatives but was not convicted by the Senate, and therefore he was not removed from office. He completed his second term as president. The correct match for Bill Clinton would be "3. Term limited" as he served two full terms and could not run for a third due to the 22nd Amendment.
