separation of powers
Here are a few, I am sure there are more. Congress enacts the laws the president has to enforce. This means the president is limited to acts within the scope of power that Congress gives him unless the Constitution gives the president a power that cannot be regulated this way. Congress passes the law that adopts the federal budget. This means that the president can only do as much as the Congress will let him pay for. Congress can impeach a president and then turn him out of office for what the Constitution calls "high crimes and misdemeanors." This ensures that the President follows the laws like everyone else has to. There are many more examples.
When President proposes a bill, a congress (both House and Senate first have to approve it. Then the president can sign the bill into law or veto it. If he vetoes it, Congress can override the bill and make it a law. The Judicial branch, though, can declare it unconstitutional. War, or Treaties- President can make treaties and send troops, but Congress have to approve the treaty and war.
Chief Legislator
The Congress.
Congress has the task of passing the laws and the President is charged with carrying them out and enforcing them. Congress appropriates the federal funds and the president spends them. Congress sets the taxes and the president collects them.
(in the US) The Legislative Branch of any government is the one which proposes and draws up legislation which is the framework of the proposed law. The Governor (or President) who is the head of the Executive Branch of government, then signs the legislation which actually "enacts" the legislation into law.

The major function of the US Congress is to make laws. Laws are passed by both houses of the Congress and sent to the President for signature.
No they can't, congress and the senate have to accept it.
Citizens, the congress, and the president. Basically the citizens sometimes send the idea in, the congress and president approve it.
There are two ways in which the President shapes laws. The President is the head of his political party, and he therefore can direct members of his party to introduce legislation in Congress that will advance his policies. And if Congress passes laws that he doesn't like, he can veto them (although with enough votes, Congress can override his veto).
