Was he /our guy/?

Well, he wasn't a Lithuanian, so no.

Hamilton was the one who came up with the Electoral College, so I think he's our guy.

No, he's our guy. He's Anglo afterall.

He tried his best with his circumstances and created a great nation, the last hope at reversing everything that has been wrong, so yes, he's our guy.

It's honestly extremely weird in my mind to picture that George Washington actually existed. To me, he's essentially a Greek god-type character, while knowing on an intellectual level that he actually existed and did things.

Of course, liberals are nowadays proceeding to tear him and the other Founding Fathers down, and it fucking pisses me off extremely to no end. Calling the fucking Electoral College "outdated" when it's functioning exactly as intended pisses me off to no end, and insulting the men who I rented books about from the library in elementary school every fucking week couldn't possibly make me more angry. What other aspects of the Constitution do they view as outdated, it makes you wonder?

Fucking bastards.

Honestly Washington deserves the deification. He had every chance to seize absolute power and he never did. It's not like it would have made him unpopular either, people were begging him to go against congress, he could have solved so many problems if he had become a tyrant. But he knew better, he knew the only way to build a proper nation is through law and order, and not through pandering to base emotions. That's why the American republic still stands and the French republic is a perpetual failure. Our nation is built on solid stone, not sand.
