If George Washington never told a lie...how, exactly, did he get elected? amirite?
by Anonymous12 years ago
He got elected because the bastard lied about the "I cannot tell I lie" story.

? I was replying to you the whole time, why?

it's because he didn't have to campaign. the population just appointed a famous person.

Has no one in these comments heard about the legend of George Washington? He chopped down a cherry tree and fessed up to his father because he could not tell a lie. Of course it's just a story and probably didn't happen, but teachers still tell it to teach about his honest character.

Because he was just THAT much more awesome than _today's_ Americans

He wasn't elected, he was appointed. Because they needed somebody to lead the nation through all the jazz going on and the council thought he was the best one. So they agreed to appoint him. Look it up.
