Abstract
The Framers had no illusions that written words alone would restrain power. As a consequence they sought to check power with power by distributing the authority of government among three branches: executive, judicial, and legislative. The powers of the three branches are interlocked in such a way that an elaborate system of checks and balances is created that enable each branch to defend itself against encroachment from the others.
