	United States Government - MSN Encarta
		In the United States the one basic principle is representative democracy, which defines a system in which the people govern themselves by electing their own leaders.
		To implement its essential democratic ideals, the United States has built its government on four elements: (1) popular sovereignty, meaning that the people are the ultimate source of the government’s authority; (2) representative government; (3) checks and balances; and (4) federalism, an arrangement where powers are shared by different levels of government.
		The Constitution of the United States is the basis for the machinery and institutions of the U.S. government.
