The American (federal) System Of Government The American (federal) system of government. The American system of government could be a complicated subject. The U.S. government consists of three branches the Executive, Legislative, and the Judicial Branch. With these branches running our government there are many tasks that each must carryout. The main components of them are the President, Congress, and the Supreme Court. The Constitution seems to supply the President with quite a few powers, yet the other branches prevent him/her from becoming too strong. The President has the power to enforce laws and even make treaties. While the President is trying to enforce a law the Supreme Court could review the law, and possibly find something unconstitutional within it. After finding that, the Supreme Court may declare the whole law unconstitutional, and the President couldn’t enforce that law any longer. The Supreme Court may also rule against an executive act. The President has the power to appoint officials and Supreme Court judges. The commander-in-chief of the U.S. Army and Navy along with the state militia is the President. The Congress is able to shelve bills proposed by the President, override vetoes, and even impeach the President. president, supreme, court, branch, government, congress, power, laws, able, treaties, judicial, judges, yet, legislative, law, even, branches, powers, make, main, few, enforce, control, constitution, within, while, united, unconstitutional, system, supply, strong, states, seems, people, one
