<u>Option A. An advantage of a presidential government is that the President is elected independently of the legislature.</u>
Explanation:
A presidential government system is a democratic and republican system of government in which a President is chosen directly by the people and becomes the Head of State, and the leader of the Executive Branch, that is separated from the Legislative Branch. An advantage of a presidential government system is that the President is elected independently of the legislature, and by being elected directly by the voters, it gives the President a more legitimated and stable power. Also this means that the President is chosen for a specific and determined term, which does not occur with the figure of a Prime Minister, for example. All of these facts make the Presidential system a more stable and direct way of government.
