Don Wildman

Why was his legacy questioned?

Why is it?

And what in your mind redeems him?

Leader of men is, you know, to say the least with this.

But those men are not just the ones who are marching with him and fighting for them.

It's the men who are making up a brand new government who are just figuring it out on their own.

He's like an Eisenhower in that regard, where he's, you know, shaping the vision of this country as it's in the works, let alone then becoming, you know.

It's an insane achievement as a human being what he does.

He sets standards that we hold today still.

I get emotional when I talk about Washington.

An amazing human to have as your founding father.

Ken Burns' new American Revolution starts out in that first episode saying there was never a more important revolution fought.

And I was like, wow, that's true.

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.
