  • A Prime Minister is usually the head of government in the parliamentary system. In other systems, such as semi-presidential, the prime minister is the official in charge of Public Administration. The head of state may be nominally his superior, but in reality in many cases he has functions rather than ceremonies and protocol, being the prime minister who governs the state. Often, a prime minister exercises his functions with a president or a monarch who serves as head of state. The prime minister is normally the leader of the political party that has the majority in parliament. His main responsibilities include coordinating government activity, appointing several government officials, and, together with the head of state, representing his country's government in the world. Prime Ministers may receive different official designations depending on the country in which they govern.
  • A President is usually the designation used to identify the person leading a meeting, a work session or an assembly. Currently, the term "isolated" refers to the public official, elected for a specific period, who holds the executive power of a State or a region. This formula was incorporated for the first time in the Constitution of the United States. In countries with a republican government regime, the head of state or government receives the title of president. Normally, heads of state are elected by the people, the congress or parliament for a period of less than a decade (4 to 8 years, depending on the country).
