Does the president of the US have the right to veto bills frequently?
NO- the President can not veto or change a law that has been passed. He can veto a proposed law, known as a bill, and send it back to Congress. They can still make it a law, but must pass it again with a 2/3 favorable vote to make it a law over the President's veto.
Pocket veto is only allowed when?
The U.S. Constitution says that a president must return a vetoed bill to Congress within ten days (excluding Sundays) of receiving it for congressional reconsideration and possible override. If the president doesn't veto the bill, the bill automatically becomes law, unless Congress adjourns within those ten days and is out of session when those ten days are up - and thus is not there to receive the bill. Then, the bill simply dies, and the president gets his wish of a veto without having to actually veto the bill. Also, Congress can't override the pocket veto, because the bill is never returned to Congress for reconsideration.
