The following is a List of the Presidents of the Republic of Greater Colombia, beginning with Simon Bolivar all the way to Cristo Zapata, the incumbent President. The President is elected by direct ballot, and due to the three-party system in Colombia, this typically requires a runoff. Generally speaking, the party that controls the Colombian Congress controls the Presidency as well, as the quadrennial Presidential election and sextennial Congressional election overlaps every twelve years. The President is constitutionally limited to two full terms, which can (and have been) served non-consecutively.

  • The following is a List of the Presidents of the Republic of Greater Colombia, beginning with Simon Bolivar all the way to Cristo Zapata, the incumbent President. The President is elected by direct ballot, and due to the three-party system in Colombia, this typically requires a runoff. Generally speaking, the party that controls the Colombian Congress controls the Presidency as well, as the quadrennial Presidential election and sextennial Congressional election overlaps every twelve years. The President is constitutionally limited to two full terms, which can (and have been) served non-consecutively. The President is empowered as the head of state and head of government of Colombia, and as such is the Commander in Chief of the Colombian armed forces. He is empowered to begin and adjourn sessions of Congress, and signs laws brought to him by both houses of the Congress. His appointments to the various Ministries of his Cabinet must be approved by majority vote in both Houses of the Congress. Like many Presidential republics in South America, there is no Vice President - the President is succeeded by the Secretary of the Chamber of the Senate in the event of death or impeachment. Presidents, upon completion of their term, are made Senator for Life.
