Which part of the Constitution establishes the executive branch and powers of the President?

The part of the Constitution that establishes the executive branch and defines the President’s powers is Article II. This article creates the Presidency, sets the qualifications to hold office, defines the term length, outlines the Electoral College process, and spell out the President’s duties and authorities—such as acting as commander-in-chief, negotiating treaties with Senate ratification, nominating judges and other officials with Senate consent, and delivering the State of the Union. It also covers impeachment and removal. Article I, in contrast, creates the legislative branch (Congress). The other options are not constitutional provisions that establish the executive: Brutus 3 is an Anti-Federalist essay, and Federalist 39 discusses federalism and republican government rather than defining presidential power.
