}}The '''President of Brazoria''' is the {{W|head of state}}, {{W|head of government}}, and {{W|chief executive}} of the [[Brazoria|Republic of Brazoria]]. They are also the {{W|commander-in-chief}} of the [[Brazorian Armed Forces]]. Brazorian presidents are {{W|style (manner of address)|styled}} as ''{{W|Excellency|His Excellency}}'' or ''Her Excellency'', a privilege which continues for former presidents.

The president is vested with broad executive powers and responsibilities. The Constitution of Brazoria empowers the president: to execute and enforce federal law; to appoint officials in the executive branch, judiciary, and bureaucracy; to accredit, send, and receive ambassadors and diplomatic dignitaries; to issue {{W|pardon}}s, {{D|reprieve#verb|reprieves}}, {{W|commutation (law)|commutations}}, and clemencies for all crimes except high crimes and {{W|treason}}; to conclude [[Treaties of Brazoria|treaties with foreign powers]]; and to represent Brazoria internationally as the head of state. The president also plays a role in the legislative process as they have the power to sign all congressional bills into law or to veto them. The president is also responsible for setting the government's agenda and may use their power to influence policymaking in Congress. The president may issue executive orders or regulatory proclamations which have the full effect of statutory law, but may be revoked by succeeding presidents, or overturned by the [[Supreme Court of Brazoria|Supreme Court]]. The presidency is the primary institution in Brazoria which is responsible for conducting [[Foreign relations of Brazoria|Brazorian foreign policy]] and military defense. The president has access to Brazoria's nuclear arsenal and is authorized to activate it.

The president is {{W|indirect election|indirectly elected}} by the [[Electoral College of Brazoria]] to a four-year term, along with the [[Vice President of Brazoria|vice president]]. Terms are renewable without term limitations. The president may be removed from office prior to the end of their term if they are impeached and convicted by Congress. In the event the president is removed from office (such as by impeachment or death) or is otherwise unable to exercise their duties as president, the vice president succeeds them, or whomever is the next in line in accordance to the [[Brazorian presidential line of succession|presidential line of succession]].

The current president is [[Rick Perry]], who was first elected in [[2012 Brazorian presidential election|2012]], and won re-election twice ([[2016 Brazorian presidential election|2016]] and [[2020 Brazorian presidential election|2020]]). He is a member of the [[Rangers and Riggers Party]] (R&RP).
