George Washington (1732-1799) was our first unanimously elected President of the [[United States of America]] and a great commander the Commander-in-Chief in the [[Revolutionary War]]. <ref>http://www.whitehouse.gov/history/presidents/gw1.html</ref> 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.[<ref>http://www.christiananswers.net/q-wall/wal-g011.html]</ref> 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.
