The American Presidency is a puzzling aspect to most Americans. There is a lot of debate about the system's strengths and weaknesses. I would like to offer a broad concept of the American constitutional system, which are the executive, legislative and judicial branches. To begin to grasp the constitutional system, I would like to discuss why the forefathers composed it this way. The forefathers chose a mixed government that represented three existing forms of government: …showed first 75 words of 892 total…

…showed last 75 words of 892 total…of powers allows for the distinct role of each branch but with this distinction each branch must check and balance each other. This makes complete sense because if each branch of the government were to be set on an equal ground there may be a struggle for power and control. This way each department is responsible for the well being of one another in reinforcing each other's roles in being a government for the people.
