The US government is made of three branches. Judicial, Executive, & Legislative.

The Judicial is made of the 9 Justices & Supreme Court, which enforces the law, and decides whether certain cases are fair or not.

Executive is made of the President, and his people. Their job is to accept or veto the laws written by Congress. If accepted, the law is signed by the president, and begins enforcement on a specific day. If vetoed, that means the President puts a stamp saying he doesn't agree, for the Congress to either disregard, or edit & make changes.

Legislature is made of the Congress which in the US case is made of two parties. The Senate and the Representatives. Senate is 2 per state, (100 total)& Representatives are depending on the state's size & population. They write the laws based which are given to the Executive to approve or veto.

So neither of the three branches become too powerful, the System of Checks and Balances was established. This means each branch is checked on, and checks on the either two branches to make sure they are all equal. Including the president. (Barack Obama has equivalent power to Supreme Court, & Senators. Only difference is Senate is for a state, president is for the country.)

Hope this helps!
