In 2012-2013, the Democrats are the party which controls the presidency and the U.S. Senate. The leader of the party is the current U.S. president, Barack Obama; the leader in the Senate is Nevada Senator Harry Reid. Mr. Obama will not be permitted to run for a third term, so there will be talk of a new generation of Democratic leaders as we get closer to the 2016 election.

The opposition party currently is the Republican party; they control the U.S. House of Representatives. The Republicans do not have an official leader, although its presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, was important during the 2012 presidential campaign. The Speaker of the House is Ohio Republican Representative John Boehner (pronounced BAY-ner). Currently, there are a number of Republican U.S. Senators and Representatives and state governors who are considering a possible run for the presidency in 2016, and one of them may emerge at the Republican party's leader. Among the names you may hear are New Jersey governor Chris Christie, or Florida congressman Marco Rubio.

There are many leaders of the United States government as it is a federal constitutional republic that has a series of checks and balances that seperates all the power of federal government into three branches in order to prevent the government becoming to powerful and oppressive on the people of the United States. The leader of the Executive branch is famously the President: Barack Obama. The leader of the Legislative branch is the Vice President Joe Biden and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. However all states and people are equally represented in the Legislature with "Representives" and "Senators". And finally the Judicial branch is headed by Chief Justice John Roberts. These are the branches and people of the United States government that makes laws, approves them, and enforces them as defined by the Constitution.

As you probably know, the Congress, or legislative branch, leads by passing laws or removing old ones.

The Supreme Court, or judicial branch, lead by ensuring that the other two branches of Federal government obey the Constitution of the United States.

The President and vice-President, or the Executive branch, lead by enforcing the laws passed by Congress and approved by the Supreme Court.

Together, these 3 branches are the "leader" of the United States government.
