How does the separation of powers along with checks and balances limit the presidents powers?

The separation of powers in the Constitution establishes three separate branches of government, the executive, judicial, and legislative. Each has their own special powers. Checks and balances allow each of the three branches to "check" the power of the other two branches to prevent any one branch from becoming too powerful. The president's powers are limited by the power of the other two branches. For example: the Court can rule an action by the president as unconstitutional and the Congress can over-ride a presidential veto.
