 | | Presidential governments also make no distinction between the positions of Head of state and Head of government, both of which are held by the president. | | | Though a president in a presidential system does not have to choose a government answerable to the legislature, it may have the right to scrutinise his or her appointments to high governmental office, with the right on occasion to block an appointment. | | | This leads to the separate election by the electorate or an electoral college of the president, who is elected to office for a fixed term of office, and only removable in extreme cases for gross misdeamour by impeachment and dismissal. |

| | President of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The United States presidential line of succession is a detailed list of government officials to serve or act as President upon a vacancy in the office due to death, resignation, or removal from office (by impeachment and conviction). | | | Although the Chief Justice of the United States usually administers the presidential oath of office, any federal judge can administer the oath — and even judges of federal district courts have fulfilled this duty in emergencies. | | | U.S. presidential elections are held every four years. |

| | Presidential Succession |
| | Exempts an acting President from automatic resignation of his or her current office if such person's service as acting President is based in whole or in part on the temporary incapacity of the President or Vice President. | | | When the 1945 death of Franklin Roosevelt made Vice President Harry Truman president, Truman urged placing the Speaker of the House next in line to the vice president. | | | It was not until 1967 that tradition became law in section 1 of the 25th amendment. |
