Unit 5 - Executive Branch
What all does the President do?
How much power does the President actually have?
Who else makes up the Executive Branch?
How did we end up with a President and a Vice President that no one voted for in the 1970's?
In this unit we will explore the many different roles taken on by the President. It is important to understand exactly what the President is actually responsible for. We will also look at the rest of the support staff for the President and see how advisers may or may not help shape our country. Finally, we will understand the presidential campaign and electoral college process that our government has adopted.
