He's so OBVIOUSLY our greatest President even having a debate seems silly. He DEFINED what the office of President is.
While visiting Mount Vernon I picked up a book called something like Maxims of George Washington. I was disappointed at the contents. I think the reason that Washington sometimes is less regarded is that he doesn't come across as having anything like the intellectual power of Lincoln. National Geographic once published a map showing all the pieces of land owned by Washington which were numerous and some very large. Acquiring land seems to have been one of his main goals in life.
He wasn't lavishly supported by the taxpayers like today's bureaucrats are.
