George Washington

We would not have the nation as we know it without him as father. First he laid down his sword and walked away when they wanted to anoint him king or something like it. Then when drafted to run and be elected he left after 2 terms again to just walk away while many wanted him to stay for life.

Hillary under those same circumstances would have died in office and an appointed successor would have taken over.

I see Castro is finally hanging it up. Don't suppose it will make any difference down there though.
