explanation:

but good luck with the test man

in the united states, the president is controlled by the

constitution, and in all respects subordinate to it. insofar

as it deals with presidential power, however, the american

constitution has proved to be a highly malleable document.

      hope this ! if i were you, i'd get a second opinion, because i haven't taken this course for a year. best of luck!
