which gives the president power over the executive branch, the power is divided equally among its members in other words we have a “plural executive”. The governor does not have complete authority over who is elected or what can be done. Yes he does have the power to fill judicial vacancies and veto bills from the legislature but the fact that there are several segments and people that control those segments do not give him complete authority. With that being said I think that the power is spread out thin by the separation of the offices and duties making it easy for one person to make decisions without consulting the others simply because that is not their area of expertise. I agree with the idea of not relying solely on one person to make big decisions on a subject that they are not proficient in but disagree with the amount of people in office that make up the executive branch which makes it hard to keep up and inadvertently gives a person too much power to do as he or she pleases.

The original authors had the right idea in mind they wanted to make the Legislation more preoccupied with matters of the district but I believe that the district should not only take in mind matters of that concern them, but those that would benefit the country as well with an emphasis on the continuous improvement of our state as opinions and needs fluctuate with our growth and ideas. The less the Legislature meets, the less power and less consideration is given to governing agencies, which in result can backfire by their abuse of power. The amount of work versus the amount of time they meet is simply unrealistic. How can anyone, especially a group of individuals make an informed and well thought out decision while being pressured with the lack of time? The
