Politics of Iraq - Politics of Iraq Before the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003, officially the Ba'ath Party ruled Iraq through a nine-member RCC, which enacted legislation by decree. The RCC's president (chief of state and supreme commander of the armed forces) was elected by a two-thirds majority of the RCC. A Council of Ministers (cabinet), appointed by the RCC, had administrative and some legislative responsibilities. Most Western observers considered Iraq a dictatorship under the personal rule of President Hussein, whom they regarded as accountable to no one. The Vice-President of Iraq was Taha Yassin Ramadan. A 250-member National Assembly consisting of 220 elected by popular vote who serve a 4- year term, and 30 appointed by the president to represent the three northern provinces, was last elected in March.
