U.S. PRESIDENTS

The Executive Branch of Government

The Constitution defines our national government as being comprised of 3 branches (parts) - each with its own powers to provide checks and balances on the others. These branches are...

o Executive (President)
o Legislative (Congress)
o Judicial (Supreme Court)

The president is responsible for carrying out laws passed by Congress. This is done through various agencies - referred to collectively as the adminitration. The president appoints the head of each organization (Senate approval is required). Virtually everyone else working for these agencies is a career professional who maintains their position from one president's administration to the next.

The president also is responsible for overseeing foreign affairs, and is Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces.
