The most important role of the president is to make good choices about our country, the elderly, the children. The least important role would have to be signing the congratulatory letters, although it is nice it is not important really.
The Vice President's entire role is: 1) become President if the President dies, 2) preside over the Senate, 3) cast a tie-braking vote in the Senate. 4) help out with whatever the President lets him do. Presidents don't die in office very often, so role #1 is not very important. In practice, the Senate is actually run by the Majority Leader instead of the Vice President, so role #2 is a mere formality and not at all important. Most important Senate work is crafting legislation and voting in committees instead of voting on the Senate floor, and even then, the Vice President cannot vote to end a filibuster, which is realistically the only way to get something through the Senate anyway. Most of the Vice President's power comes from role #4. In other words, the Vice President's power is almost entirely dependent on the whim of the President.
One of the most important duties of the President is to ensure that all laws are faithfully executed. He also has the power to sign or veto legislation.

I believe that the most important power granted to the president is the power of deciding on whether or not to keep the war overseas going. I think that the country doesn't understand that in order to stop the war, it has to go beyond the president.
