Quotes: "The powers of the Executive Branch is vested in the President of the United States, who also acts as head of state and Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces."
"The President is responsible for implementing and enforcing the laws written by Congress and, to that end, appoints the heads of the federal agencies, including the Cabinet."
Explanation of Connection: The Executive Branch is mainly run by the President because he maintains the balance between the Legislative Branch and the Judicial Branch. The President also, checks the powers of the other two branches, to make sure one doesn't gain more power over the other; this is pretty bizarre, since the Legislative Branch seems to have more power than all branch's put together.
The Executive Branch carries out all of the laws; the purpose of the executive branch is to execute, enforce and administer the laws that Congress passes.
I believe that, the President should be the main person to carry out the laws because many people look to him as a role model; if they see him breaking the law, or behaving outrageously, then more than likely they will follow his lead. If the President presents himself as well put together, respectable and honest man; I'm sure the people who look up to him will want to present themselves in the same manner.
