Who do you think was the greatest president in history?

[Britt]

Who do you think was the greatest president in our history? Please give me some details as to who and why you chose that person. Thank you!

 

[W.C. Felcher]

George Washington

He was the successful commander in chief and a war hero of the American Revolution, Founding Father, first President of the U.S., cherry tree chopper, and a hemp grower. He also slept around quite a bit.

I would have to say John Adams. He was the second president.

Why?

Because he signed the Declaration of Independence. If it wasn't for him we would probably not be where we are now. The Declaration of Independence was to claim that the 13 colonies were free from the British (England).
