Top Eleven Powers of the President
11. Commisions all officers of the US
10. Sees to it that the laws of the US are enforced
9. The President can greet ambassadors and other representatives
8. Call either house or both houses of Congress into session
7. Must inform Congress from time to time about the state of the Union (that's the long speech they have on TV every year) and recommend new laws (that's what he's talking about during the speech)
6. Can appoint ambassadors, Supreme Court justices, and other officials, with the advice and approval of the Senate
5. Can appoint high-ranking officials to fill vacancies all by themself when the Senate is not in session.
4. Can make treaties, again, with the agreement of the Senate
3. Can grant pardons for crimes
2. Appoints the head of each executive department and requires that all department heads turn in reports
1. Is commander of the armed forces
these are just the powers of the president given to him by the Constitution. The Constitution had very little on what the president couldn't do, however, and starting with George Washington, the president and the executive branch have taken on powers never expected by the writers of the Constitution.
