	President of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Because of the superpower status of the United States, the American President is often described as the most powerful person on earth and he is also described as one of the world's best-known public figures.
		After the Constitutional Convention, the position of the President of the United States in Congress Assembled was dissolved and replaced with the positions of the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives and the President of the Senate and President Pro Tempore of the United States Senate.
		The president must be a natural-born citizen of the United States (or a citizen of the United States at the time the U.S. Constitution was adopted), be at least 35 years old, and have been a resident of the United States for 14 years.

		The notion of closer hemispheric union in the American continent was first put forward by the Liberator Simón Bolívar who, at the 1826 Congress of Panama, proposed creating a league of Latin American republics, with a common military, a mutual defense pact, and a supranational parliamentary assembly.
		At the Fourth International Conference of American States (Buenos Aires, 1910), the name of the organization was changed to the "Union of American Republics" and the Bureau became the "Pan American Union".
		This was the event that saw the birth of the OAS as it stands today, with the signature by 21 American countries of the Charter of the Organization of American States on 30 April 1948 (in effect since December 1951).

		President Ricardo Lagos announced on February 4 that he would withdraw Chile’s candidate for Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), Interior Minister José Miguel Insulza.
		For his part, Insulza claims that the election would have required an arduous campaign in which he would have had to personally travel around the hemisphere several times to convince the other member countries to vote for him.
		The removal of Insulza from the candidacy for Secretary General of the OAS may also portend a brighter future for him within domestic politics in Chile: Insulza is seen by many analysts as a prime candidate for the ruling party’s presidential hopes in 2006, when Lagos’s term ends.
