Relationship to the president of the United States
Beyond a similarity of title, the office of President of Congress “bore no relationship”[1] to the later office of President of the United States. As historian Edmund Burnett wrote:
The president of the United States is scarcely in any sense the successor of the presidents of the old Congress. The presidents of Congress were almost solely presiding officers, possessing scarcely a shred of executive or administrative functions; whereas the president of the United States is almost solely an executive officer, with no presiding duties at all. Barring a likeness in social and diplomatic precedence, the two offices are identical only in the possession of the same title.[33]
