The President of the United States of America (sometimes abbreviated as POTUS) is the
head of state and
head of government of the
United States. The president is at the head of the
executive branch of the
federal government, whose role is to enforce national law as given in the
Constitution and written by
Congress.
Article Two of the Constitution establishes the president as
commander-in-chief of the
armed forces and enumerates powers specifically granted to the president, including the power to sign into law or
veto bills passed by both houses of Congress, to create a
Cabinet of advisors, to grant
pardons or reprieves, and, with the "
advice and consent" of the
Senate, to make
treaties and appoint federal officers,
ambassadors, and federal
judges, including Justices of the
Supreme Court. As with officials in the other branches of the United States government, the Constitution restrains the president with a set of
checks and balances designed to prevent any individual or group from taking absolute power.
