The veto and the pocket veto are two ways that the _____ can reject a bill
The President can use a veto in these two ways.
president
He can veto a bill and he can "pocket veto" one. A pocket veto is when he does nothing and it sits on his desk for 10 days. At that point it is a veto. This is handy because the law maybe popular but he doesn't want to veto it, so he does nothing either way. In the last several years a third way has been used and that is a signing statement. The President signs the bill into law, but then signs a statement that it shouldn't be enforced. Bush did this with about 800 laws. I don't know if Obama has done any signing statements. This really got going under Clinton who did several hundred in his 8 years.

The two types of veto that can be carried out by the president are the "Pocket Veto" and the "Regular Veto." The Pocket Veto is where the president is given a bill, but fails to sign it within the ten days of the adjournment of Congress. The Pocket Veto is less common. The Regular Veto is one in which the president returns the bill back to Congress, with a message explaining his problems, reasons for return, and recommendations for revision. From there Congress may or may not fix it depending on it's actual importance.
There are many ways in which a bill may die. This can occur when it is introduced to the House of Representatives. A bill can die when it is sent to the president of the United States and he chooses not to sign it. The president may also choose to veto the bill.

Congress can impeach a president (accuse them of a crime), override the president's veto power, and reject his or her treaties.
A presidential veto occurs when the president withholds his signature from a bill presented to him, after it has been passed by both houses of Congress, and returns it to Congress (specifically, to the house of origin), along with his objections to the bill. Congress may then, if it chooses, attempt to override the veto. For the override effort to be successful, it must be by 2/3 vote in both houses. This procedure is provided for in Article I, section 7 of the Constitution. If the president withholds his signature but does not return the bill to Congress, it automatically becomes law after 10 days (excluding sundays), unless Congress by its adjournment makes bill return impossible. Under those unusual circumstances, the president withholding of signature is a pocket veto, which kills the bill. the President can use a veto to reject a bill passed by congress (gradpoint)
