How do the expectations of the general public and other actors with respect to presidents affect the actions of executives in the exercise of power? Give examples where appropriate

What will be an ideal response?

The ideal answer should:
a. Discuss the idea that presidents have surpassed Congress as the central political figure in the minds of US citizens and how citizens place vast expectations on presidents in the conduct of their office, such as managing the national economy while protecting local onesand keeping the country safe from terror strikes.
b. Identify some of the other actors who place high expectations on the president, including executive officialdom; Congress; political parties; and foreign leaders.
c. Explain how the powers granted to the president in the Constitution seem far too limited and vague to meet the demands that citizens and groups of actors place upon the office.
d. Analyze how the pressure of expectations leads presidents to seek not only to expand their power but also to use it ways that are considered politically expedient.
