Which role is the president exercising as the head of either the democrats or republicans?
That role would be party leader-- the leader of his political party.
What political party does the leader of the opposition represent?
That depends. The party in power right now (2013) is the Democrats. Barack Obama is the leader of the Democrats. And as a result, the Republicans are the opposition party. Conversely, in 2000, George W. Bush got elected president. He was a Republican and thus, the leader of the Republican party. Because a Republican was president, it was now the Democrats who were the opposition party. So, the leader of the opposition is the man or woman who is considered to be in charge of the political party that is NOT in power.Sometimes, that extends to the senate or the house of representatives: whichever political party won the majority of the seats during the most recent election, the Speaker of the House is from that party; and the opposition is the leader of the minority party. In 2013, the Republicans are in charge in the House, so John Boehner (pronounced BAY-ner) is the Speaker. His opposition comes from the leader of the Democrats in the House, currently Nancy Pelosi. But in the Senate, it's a different story. The majority in the senate are the Democrats, led by Harry Reid. And the Republicans, led by Mitch McConnell, are the opposition party.

Who is the real speaker of the house Pelosi or Boehner very confused do republicans have one speaker and democrats another one if the president and vice president die who becomes president?
To clear up some of your confusion... The Speaker of the House is in charge of the House of Representatives. The Speaker is always the leader of the party with the most seats (currently the Republicans, until recently the Democrats). The Speaker has the power to preside over debate in the House, but usually doesn't do this, and instead members of their party will take it in turns to do the presiding. As the Republicans are currently in charge, the current Speaker is a Republican called John Bohner. After the Speaker, the most important members of the House are the Majority Leader (currently a Republican) and Minority Leader (currently a Democrat). The Minority Leader is currently Nancy Pelosi, and she is the leader of the House Democrats. Until recently, John Boehner was the Minority Leader and Nancy Pelosi was the Speaker, but they swapped positions after the previous election. On the other hand, the Majority Leader, currently Eric Cantor, is not in charge of the House Republicans (that's the Speaker's job) but serves as their second-in-command. If the President and Vice President both die, the Speaker of the House becomes President.
