The President of the United Republic (POTUR) is the head of state and head of government of the United Republic of Alstin. The president directs the executive branch of the federal government and is the commander-in-chief of the United Republic Armed Forces. The power of the presidency has grown substantially since the first president, Marcus Alanson, took office in 1689. While presidential power has ebbed and flowed over time, the presidency has played an increasingly significant role in Alstinian political life since the end of the 19th century, with notable expansion during the presidency of Alfred F. Jones. In modern times, the president is one of the world's most powerful political figures, possessing significant domestic and international hard and soft power.
Article Two of the United Republic Constitution establishes the executive branch of the federal government and vests executive power in the president. The power includes the execution and enforcement of federal law and the responsibility to appoint federal executive, diplomatic, regulatory, and judicial officers. Based on constitutional provisions empowering the president to appoint and receive ambassadors and conclude treaties with foreign powers, and on subsequent laws enacted by Parliament, the modern presidency has primary responsibility for conducting U.R. foreign policy. The role includes responsibility for directing one of the world's formidable militaries, and a significant nuclear arsenal.
The president also plays a leading role in federal legislation and domestic policymaking. As part of the system of separation of powers, Article One of the UR Constitution gives the president the power to sign or veto federal legislation. Since modern presidents are typically viewed as leaders of their political parties, major policymaking is significantly shaped by the outcome of presidential elections, with presidents taking an active role in promoting their policy priorities to members of Parliament who are often electorally dependent on the president. In recent decades, presidents have also made increasing use of executive orders, agency regulations, and judicial appointments to shape domestic policy.
The president is elected indirectly through the Electoral College to a four-year term, along with the Vice President. Under the Thirty-second Amendment, ratified in 1949, no person who has been elected to two presidential terms may be elected to a third except during a state of war, when the term limt is increased to three for the duration of conflict. In addition, nine vice presidents have become president by virtue of a president's intra-term death or resignation. In all, 59 individuals have served as President since 1689, with the the 59th and current president of the United Republic, James Hickel, having assumed office on 4 March 2033, following the resignation of her predecessor, Dennis Rogers.
