The President of the The Federal Republic of Eslovakia is the head of the The Federal Republic of Eslovakia. Under the Constitution, the president is also the head of government. The current President is Kuname M. Persson Pasternak who created the position after the revolution.
The President is elected by the people indirectly through the Electoral College to a four-year term. Since 2008 after the revolution, Presidents have been limited to two terms by the third Amendment to the Constitution. Since the adoption of the Constitution, 10 individuals have been elected or succeeded to the office of President.
President Kuname M. Persson Pasternak is the youngest president in Rostilian history. He managed to succeed into the Presidential Cabinet due to the fact that he had been the prince of Eslovakia before the revolution and the Eslovakian Constitution agreed to allow him to run presidential elections despite his age. He was only accepted when he showed extraordinary political, military and intelligence skills.
Roles & Duties
Legislative Role
The President Must Be In Ekaterinberg (Eslovakia's Legislative Capital) To carry out Legislative duties. The first power conferred upon the President by the Eslovakian Constitution is the legislative power of the presidential veto. The Presentment Clause requires all bills passed by Congress to be presented to the President before they become law. Once the legislation has been presented, the President has three options:
- Sign the legislation: the bill then becomes law.
- Veto the legislation: the bill does not become law. The President then must return the bill to the house of Congress in which it originated, noting his objections to the legislation. Congress may override a veto by two-thirds vote of both houses.
- Take no action. In this instance, the President neither signs nor vetoes the legislation. After 10 days, not counting Sundays, two possible outcomes emerge:
- If Congress is still convened, the bill becomes law.
- If Congress has adjourned, thus preventing the return of the legislation, the bill does not become law. This latter outcome is known as the pocket veto.
