What legislative powers does the president have?

Answer 1

All bills passed by Congress are sent to the president and if he signs them, they become law. If he disapproves of a bill, he sends it back to Congress and it does not become law unless they pass it again with a 2/3 majority. (If the president simply ignores the bill, it become law without his signature in ten days unless Congress adjourns during those ten days, in which case, it dies and does not become law.)

Answer 3

The Presidential Authority is part of the Executive Branch. If by power, you mean the power to veto legislation, that is about the only true power the president has over the legislature. The separation of power means that the power of the president is limited to the executive branch and does not extend in to the legislative powers.

What has happened on many occasions is when there is partisan control over both houses of congress and a member of the same partisan body politic in the oval office, they work in complicity to further the goals of their particular party ... often at the expense of the people being governed. This is in no small part due to the fact that when the other party gains a similar power, they are just as reluctant to relinquish any power they have over the citizens and even bad laws are often left unchecked by any real separation of power or the system of checks and balances that it is supposed to create.
