Today is President’s Day, which is also the day we celebrate the birth of George Washington. It’s appropriate, on this day, to make note of the important contributions he made to founding this great nation.
His military heroism and skill is well known, so also is his establishing many beneficial precedents that survive to this day. What is less commented upon, however, is Washington’s strong nationalism, and his work to bring about the United States as it is known today.
