    I dont think enough Americans realize how amazing it is that George Washington & our other Founders were all the right ppl in the right roles at the right time. Some have even called it a divine guidance. This allowed the seed of our country, based on personal liberty, to be planted & grown.

    do you think he is the type of leader who'd chastise america for all the great things it has accomplished?
    we have faults, ones obvious to him even then. So do not for a second think he would not proud of our accomplishments and stern on our failures.

    Washington was a very spiritual person but he did think the white race was superior because of their accomplishments throughout history. All top university’s were founded by ministers, like Harvard, Yale, William and Mary etc., But now they’ve become totally secular and atheists. I believe that none of our founding fathers were perfect people at all but they have proven by the constitution to be much more intelligent than any in Congress today by far. We have made some great changes though by trying to teach our young to treat everyone else the same as the Bible clearly teaches, that God is no respecter of persons. He doesn’t care if you’re rich or poor male or female black or white. But you can’t force people to like you and if people don’t want to be with me or eat by me or invite me to the party is just fine with me. I will still like them anyway. By the way if science would have paid more attention to the Old Testament even though I know they can’t see it they would have used anesthesiologists sooner lol maybe. You can’t comprehend the New Testament unless you read it in the same spirit in which it was written.

      If you live in the U.S., you should leave in protest, and go to a country that never had slaves.....

      He also freed his slaves before he died and begged Martha's family to do the same. When they refused he cut them from his will. He and other founders wanted to end slavery early on in our countries existence but the threat of tearing the new nation apart always stop them.
