When the President first took office in 1789, the population census in America( the 13 original colonies) was roughly 4 million people (including slaves).
And today's census includes over 300 million people with still one person at the helm.
Should something change?
What are your thoughts?

Now we have ONE President but we have fifty Governors. Yes one President is enough. In any country more than one leader does not work. We are NOT the most populous country in the world.

Don't forget to include the Supreme Court Justices, Congressmen, and Senators in the list of people at the helm. The president may be the most individualized, romanticized, and the figure head, but they SHARE the helm.

You're right. Something should change.
Also, there should be a sort of court system of American Citizens that are informed to decide American Policy.
It should NOT be left up to the absolutely corrupt politicians.
The current system breeds corruption.

I dont think it matters either way. They are not elected anyway. The rich and powerful decide who they wont in white house and that who gets the job.

What? We need Tweedle Dee AND Tweedle Dum? No thank you. One is quite enough.

Maybe the US should consider democracy?
