The biggest impact that technology has had on the power of the presidency is the way the information spreads. Social media sites have made politics more accessible for many Americans to voice their own thoughts, whether negative or positive. The internet has had an huge impact on the presidential campaigns as well. The social networking sites have always played a powerful role in politics. The candidates can use social media sites as an advantage in order to speak to their voters by direct message. Social media tools including Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and the television have dramatically changed how political campaigns are run and how Americans react to election offices.

In Jeffrey K. Tulis’s work “Two Constitutional Presidencies” he argues that there are two constitutional presidencies, one being an uppercase “Constitutional” presidency and one being a lowercase “constitutional presidency”. The “Constitutional” presidency is the presidency as defined by the original writers of the constitution and the “constitutional” presidency is the presidency defined by Woodrow Wilson’s political thought. Tulis claims that the founding fathers wanted the president to review the laws that congress passes and act as a clerk while Woodson believed the president should act more like a leader and be proactive in determining the country’s direction. Some of the main point supporting the founding fathers interpretation of president

Twelfth Amendment – The twelfth amendment describes how a president shall be chosen if they do not have the majority. This is by the House of Representatives voting for who the president should by. If the votes were tied, then the people who had the same number of votes would be the options for the house to vote on.

The President, just like any other man, must face the judgement of his peers and the comparisons between him and those who came before. The first four Presidents are no exception. George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison all had highs and lows, but there are clear comparisons that can be made between them, and they can be rated using these comparisons. Based on each man's time as the President of the United States during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the first four presidents would rank from best to worst as follows (George Washington, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams) because of their foreign policies both during peace and war, their public relations, and their clashes with the constitution.

The views of the presidency by the first sixteen presidents varied widely but all of their actions set precedents for their successors to use, expand, or even curtail the power of the office. Some believed in the Whig theory of strict adherence to the constitution, while others believed the president was the steward of the people with a loose interpretation of it. The power of the office expanded through the years, however it only expanded as far as the public and congress allowed.

In the admittedly short life time of the Presidential branch its occupants have taken massive strides in empowering and strengthening their office. At times a case could be made that the executive has aspired to too much; threating essential American political values, such is the case of President Franklin Roosevelt who secured a third term of office ignoring precedent and tradition.

The presidency of the United Sates of America has been an evolving office since the term of our first president, George Washington. This evolution has occurred because of the changing times and the evolution of society itself, but also because of the actions of the men who have become president.
