Government on the NATIONAL LEVEL recieves DELEGATED or ENUMERATED powers, the powers explicitly granted in the constitution (atricle 1 section 8), including EXPRESSSED, IMPLICIT, and INHERENT powers. Powers include declarations of war and coining coining money.
IMPLIED POWERS are not explicityly expressed in constitution, but are assumed to belong to national government. Implied powers are granted to national governement so that its members can properly complete their jobs. They allow for the creation of national bank and the institution of post offices.
EXPRESSED POWERS (given to national governemnt by the Constitution) include regulation of foreign trade and maintanence of national security forces.
PROHIBITED POWERS are those denied to the government all together by the constitution's silence about the topic., or because of the nature of USA's federalism. Prohibited powers include bestowing titles of nobility and denial of habeas corpus.
RESERVED POWERS are granted by the TENTH AMENDMENT ("The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.") They are not granted to the national govenrment, so it is assumed they belong to the state. Reserved powers include mariage laws and laws about medical marijuana.
CONCURRENT POWERS are shared by national and local governement. Conncurrent powers include maintaining courts and taxing,
Article two section one of the constitution states, provides that the president must make sure that the law is caried out. Powers recieved form this clause are INHERENT POWERS. President Bush inherited power in his "war on terror", pressuming and setting a president that the presdident must take care of national security on such a large scale.
EXCLUSIVE POWERS are reserved for the national government alone. They include treaty making with foreign countries and lawmaking.

TENSION between national and state government keeps the federal system healthy. Constantly they must be keeping one another in check with their various powers. The team on the bottom left represents the NATIONAL government, and the boys on the top right the STATE (local) governments., each group shows which powers they retain. In the middle are the two powers that apply to both groups.
These images represent certain powers that are distributed between local and state governments in federalism. FROM LEFT TO RIGHT... RESERVED POWERS: Marriage PROHIBITED POWERS: awarding position of nobility (federal! not feudal!) IMPLICIT POWERS: creation of post offices CONCURRENT POWERS: taxation DELEGATED/ENUMERATED POWERS: waging war EXCLUSIVE POWERS: Lawmaking (congress) INHERENT POWERS: George Bush...
