Do you agree with the claims that Washington's most important act was the voluntary giving up of the
Presidency? Explain and justify your position.

Respuesta :

Answer:

I agree with that position.

Explanation:

George Washington was the military commander and hero of the American revolution, the first president by unanimous support, and beloved and admired by the American people. He could have rejected the republican ideals of the revolution and the U.S. Constitution, and stayed in power as a dictator for life, and many people would have supported that.

However, he decided to step down from power and start the tradition of peaceful transition of power, which continues to this day, and that is one of the pillars of the U.S. republican system of government.
