      Depends on who you’re talking about and what part of their life you’re looking at.

      Is it the George Washington who chopped the cherry tree, the George Washington who dressed his slaves in potato sacks, or the George Washington who declined to be king and set the standard of the presidency? There are a lot of George’s in there who are deserving of vastly different levels of reverence.
