No the President's veto power is part of the checks and balances on Congress.
The constitution was ratified in 1789 and the president was given veto power within the constitution. There wasn’t a year when there wasn’t veto power.
The presidential veto was a part of the original Constitution written by the Founding Fathers. Although the constitution does not state that the President has veto powers, the President has to sign legislation into law. This in effect is a veto. However if the President does not sign into law a piece of legislation within 10 days then he is constitutionally required to send it back to Congress with his objections in writing.

Under the US Constitution, bills passed by the US Congress and sent to the US president for signing the bill into law can be vetoed by the president. It takes a two thirds majority in the Congress to over ride a presidential veto.
