Today is the birthday of our first President, George Washington, who defined the Presidency due to his choices and non-choices of what constitutes the Presidency. He made it a dignified office deserving the respect and honor of Kings, Emperors, Tsars, and Sultans. With a President who has degraded the respect that most of us have for the Presidency, we have 1428 days with a President disgracing the Office that President Washington defined.
