The Federal Government of the United States

        After making observations concerning the government of the United States, it has come to my realization that the people reign over the American politics, The Americans also believe that God is the ruler of the universe. I believe that this statement is true because Americans have proved to be one of the leading democratic countries in the world. However, the individual rule and self-government of the various states have continued to be attacked by the federal government which has centralized power in Washington. However, in recent years the American identity is under transformation as ore states are gaining power that allows them to make the laws that govern their areas of jurisdiction.
        The United States has two primary political parties. The Republican Party has dominated the political space for an extended for a long time. However, the Democrats have had an equal chance to elect presidents that have played a critical role in changing the nature of American politics. The Democrats are the Republicans have been altering power. In this way, the federal government has become increasingly visible. Today, there are increasing debates that focus on increasing taxes and government spending. The lawmakers have been in the forefront in demanding additional taxes to enhance the national revenue to allow the government to fund its projects.
         The framers of the American Constitution have divided the power between the state and the federal government. The 14th Amendment grants Americans rights to undertake matters of their interest, and the Bill of rights puts limitations on the centralized power of the government. The concentration of power has enhanced secularized culture, and many Americans identity with the government and the constitution. Ever since the establishment of the federal government, the United States has achieved great things because power resides in the people.
