* The Executive Branch allows the President to carry out federal laws, recommend new laws, and direct national defense and foreign policy.…
The president holds the most authority as commander in chief than in any other role. While the Congress has the sole power to declare war, the president can send armed forces into a country in situations that are the equivalent of war. Numerous presidents in the history of America have exercised…
Under the constitution the President has military, legislative, appointment, and diplomatic power. Our framers of the constitution wanted a strong military but not complete seizure of the government. Diplomatic powers and appointment powers are also under senate’s approval. The President’s legislative power can be over ridden by congress so by far this is not one of the power points of presidency. The President has sole powers of pardons granted. Under circumstances of war and terrorism the president engages in the most power.…
I think The Executive branch is the most power in the constitution because the president is in charge of this branch. My reasons why this branch has the most power is that after the people select a president, they get elected for four years. Also, the president will become commander and chief of the military,and lastly the executive branch is responsible of executing…
The President is the commander- in-chief of our armed services, he can veto congressional legislation, and he nominates judges. The legislative Branch controls the budget, approves the Presidents nominations, can pass laws over the president’s veto, and can impeach and remove the president from office. The Senate confirms the nominations for judges. The Judicial Branch can declare laws unconstitutional, declares presidential acts unconstitutional.…
The President also acts as the head of state and Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces. The Cabinet of the Executive Branch is responsible for enforcement and administration of the federal laws on a daily basis. Fun Fact: the Executive Branch employs more than 4 million Americans. The President is head of the state and also head of the government of the United States and he or she is also the Commander-in-Chief of the United States armed forces. Due to the 2nd article of the Constitution, the President is responsible for the execution and enforcement of the laws created by Congress. There are fifteen executive departments and each department is led by a chosen member of the President's Cabinet; they carry out day-to-day administration of the federal government. The 25th Amendment deals with the succession to the Presidency and establishes the procedure to follow for filling in the office in the absence of the President. The 25th Amendment supersedes the wording of Article 11, Section 1, Clause 6 of the Constitution and tells what the Vice President becomes the President or Acting President if the real President is to die, become impeached, or quits. The White house staff has a decent-sized role in helping the President and his decisions. The staff suggests ideas that the President would not have thought about, since they might not affect him as much as they would the staff. If the President…
This Branch conducts and fulfills the laws that are passed by the Legislative Branch. It is guided by the President. The President is elected by the whole state. And serves a term of four years. He carries out laws, he can remove cabinet members and officials. He negotiates…
The most powerful branch would be the executive branch. The reason why its more powerful than the others because the president has control over the foreign policies. This allows the president to make treaties so they can be approved by the senate. Another reason why the executive branch is the most powerful is that they can decide how they can enforce laws. The President had the right to veto a bill before its made all law which gave him the power to whether enforce a law or not.…
What were the reasons America’s forefathers divided the government into the legislative, judicial, and executive branches? How does this benefit the three branches?…
Each branch is restrained by the other two in several ways. For example, the president may veto a law passed by Congress. Congress can override that veto with a vote of two-thirds of both houses. Another example is that the Supreme Court may check Congress by declaring a law unconstitutional. The power is balanced by the fact that members of the Supreme Court are appointed by the president. Those appointments have to be approved by Congress.…
One power the President has is commander in chief. The president is commander in chief of the armed forced and is charged with the defence of the USA. The President has the power to order the use of troops overseas without actually declaring war. For example, in 2002…
The main purposed of this branch is to enforce the laws of the nation. This branch also deals with foreign nations and diplomatic ties with them. Pieces of legislation must be sent through the executive branch, so the president can either sign it into law or veto it (“Three Branches…
The second branch established by the Constitution is the Executive Branch, so done by Article II. The Executive Branch is responsible for enforcing laws, which have been enacted by Congress, and is headed by the president. The third branch, established by Article III, is the Judicial Branch, responsible for interpreting the Constitution and other federal law, and trying civil and also criminal cases. The greatest power had by the judicial branch is arguably the power of Judicial Review. Judicial Review is the power the judiciary holds to determine constitutionality of laws enacted by the congress. This power is not enumerated in and given to the judiciary by the constitution, instead it exists only because of a ruling of this same branch not made until 1803. The Supreme Court decision of Marbury v. Madison established the high court and lower courts’ power to review legislation for the purposes of determining constitutionality (Cranch). Because this power is only held because of a ruling by itself and not because it was assigned by the constitution, the judicial branch is therefore inherently the least…
Which branch of government do you think is the most powerful and why? I believe the most powerful branch of government is the Legislative Branch, because of the power it processes to keep checks and balance on the other two branches of government. There are two different houses in the legislative branch, the first is the house if representatives and the senate. The House of Representatives consists of 435 members elected from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the United States territories. The states population determines the number of members elected from each state. There are 6 non-voting members that represent the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and four other territories of the United States. The senate consists of 100 members, two from each state. Members of the house are up for election or reelection every two year as opposed to the senate, which is every six years. Together they form the congress of the United States of America.…
I gather from our readings and videos that the United States Judicial Branch certainly is the most power branch of government. I believe this has been the case since Marbury vs. Madison in 1803 exercising the basis of judicial review under Article III of the Constitution. Judicial review is where the court has the ability to examine and decided if a statue, treaty or administrative regulation contradicts or violates the previsions of an existing law, State Constitution, or United States Constitution. In my opinion the Judicial Branch has gotten a little too big for their britches in recent years. They basically have the final say on what is constitutional and what is not regardless of the situation. The Judicial Branch has the authority to override any of the other branches of government.…
