POLSC 11000 Lecture 10: President
Document Summary
The president does indeed have the power to persuade others, due to the dispersed powers in the government. As an equilibrium, checks and balances allow the executive to do certain things separate from the legislative and judicial. However, to do that certain action, each government section must show the proposal to the branches for approval. In this same way, the president must persuade people with his suggestions, attributable to the benefits and disadvantages that would occur. Subsequently, in order for the president to get his issue across, he must prevail upon the subject, as every other government official does. His power is certainly limited because the executive branch is one-thirds of the government and through this inadequate power, he does hold the supremacy of listing what he contemplates should happen. In the course of such matters, the congress can be persuaded to authorize or demur.
