1789

On this date in 1789 George Washington was elected the First President of the United States of America, he was the only President to be unanimously elected.

I wish that George and Ben were alive today, as well as a few other founding Fathers, I'd like to ask them a few questions about what they "really meant" when they wrote the Constitution, I bet the way we interpret it now is not the way they ever anticipated.

That's neat. I bet they would be shocked at the state the country is in now.
