"political system

The USA is a federal republic which consists of 50 states and the District of Columbia (D.C.). Each state has its own government, laws, customes, education, taxes, traffic rules, etc. The federal government is responsible only for foreign affairs and finance.
The Federal Government is composed of 3 branches: the Legislative – both houses of Congress, the Executive – the President and the Executive office, the Judicial – the Supreme Court and other federal courts.
The head of the government is the President. His powers are wider than those of the British Prime Minister. The President is elected every 4 years and he is chosen by direct election of the voters.
Congress is the supreme law-making body in the country. It consists of the Senate and
the House of Representatives. There are 100 senators, 2 from each state, and 435 members of the House of Representatives. The number of Representatives from each state depends on its population. A Senator is elected for 6 years, a Representative for 2 years.
The Supreme Court is the main instrument of the federal judiciary. It watches over the President and Congress.
America has a two-party political system. The two leading parties are the Democrats (Bill Clinton, John Kennedy, Franclin Roosevelt) and the Republicans (George Bush, Ronald Reagan, Abraham Lincoln)."
