Best Answer

The National Security Act of 1947 set up the Central Intelligence Agency. One major purpose behind this act was to keep the US presidents aware of covert actions world wide and thus allow a president to use the intelligence gathered by the CIA to establish policy and to conduct foreign affairs.
