George Washington

The two videos that we watched about Washington definitely changed my opinion of him, though not necessarily for worse. In the first video, I realized how few voters there were. Also, they were all more than likely stone drunk. I definitely think that this affected the outcome of the vote, but we can't be sure as to how it influenced it. The second video tested a popular myth about Washington, which was actually proven possible. I think that both of these videos combine to show that Washington was a very physically formiddable man, but was somewhat lacking in political skill.
