powers given to each branch of the Federal Government
The enumerated powers are those powers given to the Legislative Branch of government, which is Congress.
In the U.S., the legislative branch of government is responsible, and has the constitutional powers, to declare war.
No branch of government has ultimate control. Thankfully we have something called separation of powers (checks and balances). Example Congress legislative branch make laws. the president executive branch enforces them. the courts the judicial branch decides whether the law are constitutional. They interpret the law. Sadly over the years congress and given powers and extended the powers to the president.
The US Constitution clearly states the powers in which each branch of government should hold exclusively. This is done to limit the powers and prevent any one branch of government from holding absolute control.
Separation of powers. The idea was that government cannot be completely trusted, so each branch of the government was given the authority and the responsibility to act as a check against the other two.
