“Why not George Washington as greatest General?”

Emotion gets the better part of rationality in some people.

“Why not George Washington as greatest General?”

Considering he had limited resources to win the war, and his post-war decisions shaped this nation more than any other person, I agree with his nomination.

HIs greatness wasn’t merely winning a war, albeit by a slim margin, but his conduct afterward was how we define ourselves today.
