The Congress.
Ambassadors are the official representatives of the head of state abroad. As such, in the United States, the President (Executive Branch) appoints ambassadors. The Senate (Legislative Branch) confirms the ambassador's nomination before he or she takes his post as chief of mission within the embassy.
The President (Executive branch) nominates US Supreme Court justices, federal judges and ambassadors with the "advice and consent" of the Senate (Legislative branch). That means the Senate has to approve whomever the President selects for them to receive a commission.United States Constitution, Article II, Section 2, Paragraph 2:"He shall have power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to make treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, shall appoint ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, judges of the Supreme Court, and all other officers of the United States, whose appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by law: but the Congress may by law vest the appointment of such inferior officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the courts of law, or in the heads of departments. "The President shall have power to fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate, by granting commissions which shall expire at the end of their next session."
If the president can no longer serve term, and neither the vice president, then the Secretary of State gets in charge. ...Or at least I'm pretty sure.
The president is the leader of the executive branch of the federal government. The analogous position in a state government is a state government.
Yes. The President appoints the nominee and then hearings are held in the U.S. Senate. The Senate ultimately votes to confirm or deny the nomination.
The president.
National Security Advisor is not an elected office. The President appoints a person to the position. As an appointed position, like so many others, the person serves at the pleasure of the President, who can ask for a resignation at any time. But there is no time limit to the position.
A cabinet position is not an official position in government -- there is no constitutional amendment or law requiring or prohibiting a cabinet. Therefore, the President of the United States may appoint or fire any member of his cabinet that he sees fit. The President may also create new cabinet positions or destroy positions at his sole discretion. The President may also choose to have no cabinet at all. In short, the President appoints a person to be in his cabinet, and that person is in.
Vice President
The Executive Branch (or, in particular, the president) appoints the Supreme Court Justices to their position. For the Legislative Branch: If the Supreme Court were to rule some act as "unconstitutional", the Legislature has the ability to create an amendment to the constitution.
