George Washington (1732-1799) was unanimously elected President of the United States of America and the Commander-in-Chief in the Revolutionary War.[1] He was also a devout Christian, with his adopted daughter once stating that if you question Washington's faith you may as well question whether or not he was a patriot.[2]
Washington is perhaps the only leader in world history who voluntarily relinquished power over a prosperous nation. His precedent of serving only two terms was then voluntarily followed for 140 years.
