The values that were created out of this revolution were completely new or at least

in the modern age, incredibly important.

And therefore, George Washington is at the head of that, you know, like that human enlightened movement he's doing as both a fighter and a politician.

Incredible.

There's a term that I'm curious about called Fabian strategy.

What does that mean and how does it apply to George Washington?

An amazing chess player on the battlefield and off without many pieces.

I mean, it says a lot about the man.

His success, you know, in the end, of course, results in the creation of the nation itself.

And what more to say?

They named the capital for him and a very big monument.

OK, we'll come back after this break and we'll continue with our rankings.

Jonathan, about the greatness of military leadership, I wonder, do you think the greatness of military leadership and vision only comes out of wartime experience?

I mean, we're in an era when we're trying not to fight wars.

Are we still going to produce excellent generals?

But that's my cynical approach.

That's a great segue to our last great man, our last great general on this list, U.S.

Grant.

So much to say, but like a Nathaniel Green in that he comes from that quartermaster mentality.

Early in the war, he is so much a part of the supply chain and so forth.
