As the person ultimately responsible for the enforcement of laws, the President has considerably power in determining three major factors:
The President (and Executive Branch) has no ability to invalidate a law, or declare it unConstitutional, or otherwise fail to enforce a valid law. The first two powers are strictly the responsibility of the Judicial Branch. In the latter case, citizens can sue the Executive to force enforcement if the Executive decides to "negate through neglect" by not allocating law enforcement resources.
The Executive can also decide that certain laws are unConstitutional and stop trying to defend them in any pending judicial court case. This is NOT the same as failing to enforce such laws - the Executive is bound to continue to enforce that law, up until a judicial case declares the law null and void. However, in that court case, the Executive branch (as the nominal "defense") can simply say "We agree with the plaintiff's case that the law should be overturned". The Judicial branch is still the ultimate decider of whether the law is Constitutional or not, but having the defense effectively agree with the plaintiff is a very strong motivator (but NOT a requirement) for the Judicial branch to overturn the law.
The responsibility for executing the new law would give a president great power because he has final say. The president could take out an officer that was doing bad or wrong and replace him immediately with someone worthy of doing the job.

The elastic clause, which gives the Congress the power of executing "foregoing powers."
The Senate has the 'confirmation power', they confirm or deny all of the presidents appointments (cabinet, judicial, ambassador). The senate's confirmation power the senate shares with the president the responsibility for filling many high-level government positions.

With great power comes great responsibility.
Recognition of new foreign countries and governments falls under the purview of the Executive Branch. The Department of State advises the president, and it is the president who has overall responsibility for forming and executing the foreign policy of the US.
