| - The President of the United States of America, shortened to POTUS, is the head of state and head of government of the United States and is the highest political official in United States by influence and recognition.
- The President of the United States of America is both the head of state, and the head of government for the United States of America, a political union on the North American continent on Earth. The office of the president was established by the ratification of the Constitution of the United States of America in 1787. Prior to the ratification of the Constitution, under the Articles of Confederation, the presiding officer of the Congress of the Confederation was known as the President of the United States in Congress Assembled, and over a dozen men served served in that position. There was no executive branch, and the President of the Congress was merely a legislative position. Under the Constitution, the executive branch was formed, and the first United States President was elected for a four-year term by a college of Electors, who were chosen at first by the states, and then by plebiscite. George Washington was the first person elected president under the Constitution. (ENT novel: The Good That Men Do, historical accounts) He was inaugurated on 30 April 1789. (DS9 novelization: Far Beyond the Stars) In the early 20th century, giant likenesses of four of the most admired presidents were carved out of the granite in Mount Rushmore in South Dakota. A fifth likeness, that of Sarah Susan Eckert, was added sometime prior to 2287. (TOS novelization: Star Trek V: The Final Frontier) In 1941, Benny Russell had a vision of seeing a Negro become President of the United States. (DS9 novelization: Far Beyond the Stars) By the early 23rd century, the office of President of the United States had become a largely ceremonial role, rather than a position with actual political power. Ambassador Sarek once gave a speech on computer systems to a number of dignitaries, including the president. (TOS novel: Spock's World) In 2375, following the Breen attack on San Francisco, the President of the United States joined Federation President Min Zife and the Prime Minister of United Earth in touring the city.

- The President of the United States of America is basically like the King of America, except he is not Elvis. He is also democratically elected, which supports democracy, freedom, liberty, and family values. He is America's greatest national treasure and one true leader of the free world (as long as he does not happen to be one of those cut and run Democrats). The president holds most of the power in our great country, and would have all of it except for liberal activist judges constantly screaming about "checks and balances". Our president should never be questioned on any issue unless you hate freedom. The official acronym for the title of President of the United States of America is POTUS, which should provide a reasonably good idea of just what these guys are smoking when they are liberal Democrats leading the country in the wrong direction. Like away from Iraq. George H.W. Bush was actually a Democrat in disguise when he did that, but it was not his fault. The President of the United States of America also serves as the Mayor of Washington D.C. The people of D.C thought they could home rule themselves. Seeing he was busy with increasing gas prices and taking jobs away from hard working Christian Americans, Liberal President Jimmy “the peanut” Carter decided to give the people their wishes in 1979. This misguided and moronic decision lead to a freewheeling liberal crackhead, Marion Barry, ruling the city. Seeing the people of Washington D.C. could not be trusted to select a proper leader, the great George H.W. Bush took away their privileges and took over rule. D.C. is now again one of the safest places to live in the country.
- The President of the United States of America is the head of state and head of government of the United States. The president leads the executive branch of the federal government and is the commander-in-chief of the United States Armed Forces. Article II of the U.S. Constitution vests the executive power of the United States in the president and charges him with the 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. Since the founding of the United States, the power of the president and the federal government have grown substantially and each modern president, despite possessing no formal legislative powers beyond signing or vetoing congressionally passed bills, is largely responsible for dictating the legislative agenda of his party and the foreign and domestic policy of the United States. The president is frequently described as the most powerful person in the world. The president is indirectly elected by the people through the Electoral College to a four-year term, and is one of only two nationally elected federal officers, the other being the Vice President of the United States. The Twenty-second Amendment, adopted in 1951, prohibits anyone from being elected to the presidency for a third full term. In all, 43 individuals have served 55 four-year terms. On January 20, 2009, Barack Obama became the forty-fourth and current president.
