*presidents of the ‘united states’*

-the president of the united states (POTUS) is the elected ‘head of state’ + ‘head of government’ of the ‘united states’-

(the ‘president’ directs the ‘executive branch’ of the ‘federal government’ and is the ‘commander-in-chief’ of the ‘united states armed forces’)

(the ‘president’ is considered to be one of the world’s ‘most powerful political figures’, as the leader of the ‘only contemporary global superpower’)

(the role includes being the ‘commander-in-chief’ of the world’s ‘most expensive military’ with the second largest nuclear arsenal and leading the nation with the ‘largest economy’ (by ‘nominal GDP’))

(the office of ‘president’ holds significant ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ power both in the ‘united states’ and abroad)

(‘article II’ of the ‘US constitution” vests the ‘executive power’ of the ‘united states’ in the ‘president’)

(the power includes ‘execution of federal law’, alongside the responsibility of appointing federal ‘executive’, ‘diplomatic’, ‘regulatory’ and ‘judicial’ officers, and concluding ‘treaties’ with ‘foreign powers’ with the advice and consent of the ‘senate’)

(the president is further empowered to grant federal pardons and reprieves, and to ‘convene’ and ‘adjourn’ either or both ‘houses of congress’ under ‘extraordinary circumstances’)

(the president is largely responsible for dictating the ‘legislative agenda’ of the party to which the president is a member)

(the president also directs the ‘foreign’ + ‘domestic’ policy of the ‘united states’)

(since the office of ‘president’ was established in ‘1789’, its power has grown substantially, as has the power of the ‘federal government; as a whole)

(the president is ‘indirectly elected’ by the people through the ‘electoral college’ to a ‘4-year term’, and is 1 of only 2 nationally elected federal officers, the other being the “‘vice president’ of the ‘united states'”)

(the “22nd amendment” (adopted in ‘1951’) prohibits anyone from ever being elected president for a 3rd term)

(it also prohibits a person from being elected to the presidency more than once if that person previously had served as ‘president’ (or ‘acting president’) for more than 2 years of another person’s term as ‘president’)

(in all, ’44 individuals have served 45 presidencies (counting grover cleveland’s 2 non-consecutive terms separately) spanning ’58 full 4-year terms)

(‘232 years’)
(’58 full 4-year terms’)

(on ’20 january 2009′, ‘barack obama’ became the ’44th president’)

(on ‘6 november 2012’, he was re-elected)

(his 2nd term expired at ‘noon’ on ’20 january 2017′)

(at that time, “donald trump”, having won the ‘2016 presidential election’, was inaugurated as the nation’s ’45th president’)
