Washington…they make him out to be the perfect leader

Capable, intelligent, determined, empathetic, eloquent, inspiring.
No much mention here of the hundreds of slaves he owned. I guess that wasn’t the point of this particular conflict.
They have a really cool statue of Washington here. He carries a cane, stands on a plow share and rests his hand on a Greek -inspired column engraved with thirteen ribs representing the colonies. Wonderful imagery for the soldier-statesman. Well done.
