Washington 37% and Reagan 40%.

I don’t think so.

I love Reagan, but Washington’s contribution was a multi-generational effect that lasted hundreds of years. The founders were Giants who are little appreciated today.

It’s a bit closer now... Obviously, in a subjective poll, you’ll get people’s opinions based on their experience and not necessarily based on their understanding of the big picture. I think both Washington and Reagan were great in their time periods. The difference was the Washington was absolutely vital to future generations. The jury is still out, historically speaking, on Reagan’s importance to future generations.
