I live in the United States and we have 50 states and we have a couple of territories like Puerto Rico, Guam and a few others. Also to answer your question the President dosent manage all 50 states we have a lot of people running this country. He is the top person in our goverment but mostly everything that happens here in the USA Laws or anything else has to go through Congress. Also each state and territory has a governor which runs the state. I think we have a good system here in the USA but the problem is that George Bush and his people are ruining the United States. I hope that January comes soon so we could have a new president in office because I don't think anyone could be worse than Bush.
