An Irish president does have some powers, like that new laws are signed into operation by the president. When a government is formed, the new leaders have to go to the president of Ireland to receive their seals of office, and they return them when they resign or there is a general election. There are other powers too. In Ireland the President is the head of state, but not the head of government. That is the case in many countries. Some countries have the two roles as one, like in the USA. The head of government in Ireland is known as a Taoiseach, which is an old Irish word for leader or chieftain. The corresponding position in other countries would be a prime minister.
