(THE AUTHORITY OF THE US PRESIDENT IN TAKING CARE OF THE EXECUTION OF LAWS) - AN ANALYTICAL STUDY

Abstract

The task of executing laws, in various constitutions around the world whether parliamentary, presidential or mixed, is the primary function of the executive branch, from which this authority derives its name. It was natural, after the founding fathers of the United States Constitution entrusted executive power to the President of the United States, to stipulate the President's duty to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed." The oath taken by the American President before assuming office also requires him to preserve the Constitution of the United States, which is the supreme law of the state. The President's mission in this regard is not limited to executing federal laws only, but obviously includes safeguarding the rights and conditions guaranteed by them and protecting the social order against any aggression or breach. American jurisprudence and legal scholarship have established recognition of the President of the United States' authority to use various means to fulfill his duty of taking care of law execution, including issuing executive regulations, exercising presidential authority, and using force when necessary.This research analyzes the authority of the American President in taking care of law execution through two main sections: the first explains the content of this authority, and the second reviews the means available to the President to fulfill this duty.
