US Constitution

The reason governmental decisions are important for all of us is because those decisions impact all of us. For example, governments create laws that citizens have to follow.

international treaties

There are many rights and responsibilities provided to every US citizen by the Constitution. Some examples of these rights and responsibilities include the right to vote, the right to stay informed, the performance of jury duty, and the obligation to obey the laws.

for a law to become legal, it must be signed by the president.... a bill is a proposed law submitted for approval by the president by both houses of congress (senate and the house of representatives)... a veto is the presidential prerogative not to approve the law if he is contrary to it. if that is the case, it is then returned back to the congress for more deliberations and re-submitted to the president for approval. if he vetoes it again, i think congress can pass the law by two-thirds majority... if the bill becomes a law and it turned out to be disadvantageous to the people, it is congress who gets blamed and not the president for letting it become a law...
