    Presidential Evaluation- George Washington was a president of the highest measures. He set up the office of the president almost single-handedly and had to settle disgruntled farmers in western Pennsylvania that were specters of the original Revolutionaries. He also had to juggle both the British and French harassments and also choose to not support the new French government in their war against Britain. That choice was unpopular among many of the American people but he kept to his decision because he wanted to make sure that his new nation would continue to exist and hold its own against any foreign power in the future. To rate George Washington is an extremely difficult thing to do. The man set the guidelines of the presidency and was always looking out for the good of the government and the people. I will rate him 10/10 because he is the guideline for all the other presidents to compare…

    George Washington acted in the best interests of America. He was revolutionary war hero who was elected unanimously for president (O.K.). As the president he needed to set precedents that first made the office respected. He took others’ advice, and as a result was well liked and trusted (Doc. 1). This advice took the form of his Cabinet, a group of trusted experts who helped him make decisions. This was in America's best interest so all the decisions were smart (Doc. 2) Other precedents set in order to make the office respected were, giving an inauguration speech and farewell address, and serving only two terms (Docs. 4,5,& 6). He managed to stop the whiskey rebellion peacefully (Doc. 3), unlike others, such as Shay’s rebellion (O.K.). George Washington's actions and the precedents he set, all served to make the presidency respected and prove that it is truly in the best interest of America.…

    my research paper is on president George Washington and why I name him as the best US president. I believe that George Washington was the best US president because of how he united the nation and lead America into war against the British and the tactics he used in the war against the British. my first reason for my opinion is the different tactics Washington used in the war with the British and how they were implemented. when Washington was in lead as the commander of the American Army he utilized guerilla warfare that was used by some of the pioneers on the frontier. By using this kind of warfare the colonists were given a leg up in the war.…

People always think a president is a confident person; however, George Washington had a very limited view of his own capabilities, so he was feared that he could not correspond his countrymen’s expectations. It was also impressed that he was the only unanimously elected president in the history.

    Most people believe that George Washington was the very first President of the United States. On the contrary to that belief I feel inclined to inform you, that George Washington was definitely not the first President of America. During the American Revolution the U.S Congress appointed Peyton Randolph to be President over America at that time, and we all know that George Washington was serving as a Major General. Regarding this information, Mathew Santoro sheds some light on the topic: "He [George Washington] became America's first popularly elected President, first President under the New Constitution. Yes. But in actuality was the 15th President to lead the United States." Though George Washington was not the first…
