Checks and Balances 2

The video explains the U.S. Constitution's design to prevent any government branch from becoming too powerful by establishing three branches: Legislative, Executive, and Judicial. Each branch has distinct powers and responsibilities, with a system of checks and balances to ensure no branch overpowers the others. Examples include the President's power to veto laws, Congress's ability to override vetoes, and the Supreme Court's role in interpreting laws.
