Our Constitution is written so that our country doesn't give all the power to one person or group,
we have something called the:
SEPARATION OF POWERS.
This Separation or DIVIDING UP THE POWER created 3 Branches of Government.
Each branch has certain powers, but none of the branches has ALL the power.
Each branch checks up on the other branches. This is called
THE SYSTEM OF CHECKS AND BALANCES
