Greatness is being a well-informed and engaged constituent.
The Executive Branch has so many paradoxes: The President is the most powerful office yet remarkably limited. The job is steeped in tradition yet shifts from person to person. And the Executive Branch is so much more than those who work in the White House.
In examining the President, Cabinet, and millions who make up the Executive Branch, students will gain a mastery of the powers, responsibilities, as well as limitations of this largest branch.
