If our country had no Executive Branch of government, then the President would be like a King. The senate would not be able to override him in any way. If the President does not like any of the laws that would be made; then we would only be the country that he wants. He could influence judges and people to do whatever he wanted them to. This is what would happen if we did not have an Executive Branch. After many days of protesting, Egyptian people have taken to the streets of Cairo to clean up Tahir Square.
