Presidential Government

The video explains the presidential government system, where the executive branch is led by a president who serves as both head of state and government. It highlights the separation of powers between the legislative and executive branches, allowing for checks and balances. The president is elected independently of the legislature and plays a significant role in lawmaking, including the power to veto bills. The president also acts as the head of state, engaging with foreign leaders and overseeing the military, though war declarations require legislative approval. The video concludes by encouraging viewers to consider the advantages of this system.
