"Again who is the head of this country?"
The Big Head?
There is not a head of this country.
We live in a republic- that means that sovereigny is seen to reside in the citizens of this great country. {It's also commonly accepted [by those who at least have the vaguest clue] that even with non-republican [:) ] countries the ultimate authority resides in the people who live in the area in question.}
The "head" of our miltary is the President. The President is also the "head" of Federal govermental bureaucracy. The President is constained by laws. The Congress controls government and the people by having the legal power to pass laws. The President has veto power over laws not passed by 2/3 majority. But don't take my word on this- read the US Constitution.
