this is some old story i heard in US history.

supposedly, in one battle of the french and indian war, a native american chief told his warriors to shoot at all the generals on the opposing side. all were killed but one, george washington. then the chief told his men to shoot and washington in particular. two bullets went through his uniform. he had two horses shot out from under him, only to jump on the horses of other fallen generals. after that, the native americans decided not to shoot at him because they believed he was blessed. one brave reportedly shot 17 shots at him from under 20 yards away, and couldn't hit him.

it's because george washington was a god and could choose when he wanted to pass to the afterlife.

Neither of them were as great as they're made out to be. But GW set the standard for periodic elections, without which we could have had an elective monarchy that some of our worst presidents could have led for life.

Lincoln set slaves free in only the states that had left the union because he was fearful of retaliation, seems pretty pussy to me.

Aaron Burr comes in and murders the shit out of both.

But my vote went to Abe Lincoln.
