The Founders of America limited the executive powers of the federal government in a number of ways. Among the more notable limitations are the following: the combination of popular and electoral responsibility in electing presidents; the limited tenure of each president (as originally conceived for each term and then through the term-limit precedent set by Founder and America's first President, George Washington); and also the elaborate distribution of 'executive' power among other branches of the federal government.
