  2. Analysis • If our country had no Executive Branch of government, then the President would be like a King. The senate would not be able to override him in any way. If the President does not like any of the laws that would be made; then we would only be the country that he wants. He could influence judges and people to do whatever he wanted them to. This is what would happen if we did not have an Executive Branch.

  3. Egypt • After many days of protesting, Egyptian people have taken to the streets of Cairo to clean up Tahir Square. The protesting went on because Mubarak had been in office for over 20 years. The people had finally had enough of him abusing his power. His actions speak for themselves, he held “Democratic” elections every year, but always seemed to be in office even if they did not want him there.
