The main responsibility of the president is to sign bills into laws and to be a figurehead for the government. The president and all politicians should be held accountable for their actions and should act with dignity and respect towards others.

The main responsibility is to keep the nation safe and make sure laws and legislation are ethical and contemplated.

The main responsibility of the president is to represent and speak for the representatives of America. I feel they should be held to a higher standard than everyone else because they represent all of us.

They are supposed to sign bills and be the public face of the country so they should be held to a higher standard just because of how many people watch them

The president is responsible not only to help pass laws, but also represent the country, and therefore should be held to a higher standard of conduct.

Their main goal is to pass laws and bills to best help their people and their country. I think they should be held to higher standards especially if they want to be re-elected.
