Power is of a great necessity because it helps to put a person at the helm of affairs in a situation where they have to take charge of things and steer everyone in the right direction. It could be a problem when the person at the helm of affairs turns out to become power thirsty.

<h3>What is power?</h3>

This is the term that is used to refer to the the given ability that a president has received from the people of a nation to rule the nation. The goal is to be able to help to stir the nation in the right direction with the power gotten.

The issue that exists here is that a person may have to become power thirsty when they are given too much power. A lot of leaders may become authoritarians in the face of excess power when they are not restricted.

By the consent of the people over whom they rule.

The "social contract" refers to an implicit agreement between a government and the citizens of the society overseen by that government.   Philosophers of the Enlightenment era were famous for arguing the idea of a "social contract."  According to this view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed.  This was a change from the previous ideas of "divine right monarchy" -- that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler.  One of the most influential of the social contract theorists was John Locke, who repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his <em>First Treatise on Civil Government.</em>  In his <em>Second Treatise on Civil Government</em>,  Locke then argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting and enhancing their own life, liberty, and property.
