Who knocked out fdr and teddy?

TJ loved his slaves! Even had some children folk who weren't his own colour

And for that reason I must vote for TJ.

Yeah, I think I missed that one.

washington ordered his own men hanged on several occasions for insubordination when at war; sometimes for as light an offense as petty thievery.

he once ordered a group of captured traitors to dig their own graves and then ordered them to execute EACHOTHER under threat of torture.

that being said... i still voted for him.

Probably need to adjust for inflation.

cite plz

Who HASN'T done this?

Not enough posts here for a vote to count but have followed this with interest.

Washington for one simple reason, he was he first leader of a country to walk away from the top spot and turn the job over to another.

christopher nolan is a huge GW fan. this scene is basically an homage to him. and to america, really.

Van Buren ainec

On the list of bad things US Presidents have done, being a strict military commander has to be wayyyy down the list.

Really? I read somewhere that, adjusted for inflation, Washington was possibly the richest President ever.

EDIT: Turns out most of the assets was land. He wasn't very liquid.

He had tons of land but no liquid wealth. He actually had to borrow money to get to his inauguration. He had constant cash flow problems and was always worried about money. Feeding and housing all of his slaves was a huge drain on his finances since only a portion were productive while many were either children and enfeebled. Of course Jefferson was bankrupt but kept spending and borrowing his entire life a drunken sailor.

Foregone conclusion is foregone.
