Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1. Note that the president has the power to issue executive orders that do not require congressional approval, although they are subject to challenge.
2. Explain that the president has the power of executive privilege, which allows the president to keep executive communications confidential, especially if they relate to national security.
3. Identify that the president can also exercise the power of impoundment, which allows the president to stop an agency from spending funds previously authorized and appropriated by Congress.
