"Harken back to the world amazement when George Washington voluntarily stepped down, setting a precedent of peaceful transfer of power."

And of course, Washington set the tone thru his leadership, refusing the offered title of King and instead choosing to be a President of the country. What a great leader, what a great man!

Not only that, but George Washington never gets the credit that he deserves for his immense guidance during the Constitutional Convention in 1787. He truly is the father of our country... it sucks that we do not even celebrate his birthday any more as a national holiday, we combine it with that of the worst tyrant in American presidential history...
