Under the Constitution of 1821, the President was the head of the executive power. and its time in office was the lifetime of the incumbent. The executive power had also Vicepresidents that assumed in case of death, demotion or illness of the President. Before the Aproval of the Constitution of 1821 by the Congress of Villa del Rosario the President de Facto was Simon Bolívar, and the Vicepresident Francisco de Paula Santander, because the Congress of Angostura provisionally gave them that title until the Constitution was written.

The Republic of Greater Colombia comprised the former territories of the Viceroyalty of the New Grenada, the Capitaincy of Venezuela and the Audience of Quito (Today Ecuador).

Presidents of the Republic of New Granada (1831-1858)

Presidents of the Grenadine Confederation (1858-1863)

Presidents of the United States of Colombia (1863-1886)

Republic of Colombia (1886-Present)

After the War of the Supremes, the economic chaos of the Federal Period, the ex-President Rafael Núñez decided in a second term under the Constitution of Rionegro to draft a new one. The Constitution of 1886 Under that text the President was the chief of the executive power for 6 years with indefinite reelection (This changed in 1910 to 4 years with non-immediate reelection), and the Senate elected the Designate that acted as President when he died, was absent or deposed.

We must remark, that the Constitution of 1886 has been one of the longest lasting constitutions in the western hemisphere, and with the Reforms of 1910, 1936, 1958, 1968, 1973 and 1986 was the constitution of Colombia until 1991, when a new one was drafted. The Constitution of 1991 is still the constitution of the Republic.
