Indespensable man

A detailed Summary of Indespensable man

Our first president, George Washington, was

indispensable for a number of reasons. In the book,

"Washington The Indispensable Man," James Thomas

Flexnor points out many of the reasons he is

indispensable, such as the fact that he never quit, he

let his slaves go, he wouldn't side with the British or

the French, and he didn't accept being president for

the third term. These points may not seem to show his

indispensability, but if Washington wasn't our first

president who knows where we would be right now

(probably be speaking French or in tyranny).

Washington was criticized for a lot of things he

did, and he was also thanked for everything later.

When he would get criticized for something he wouldn't

quit or give in to what they want because they

criticized him. During the Jay treaty Thomas Paine

insults Washington in a peroration saying, "As to you,

sir, treacherous in private friendship (for so you have

been to me and that in the day of danger) and a

hypocrite in public life, the world will be puzzled to

decide whether you are an apostate or an impostor;

whether you abandoned good principles or whether you

had any." pg.354. Even when all odds are against him

he rode the neutrality line and wouldn't side with the

Washington, being unreplaceable and indispensable,

convinced to being more of a federalist, it was a good

lay a foundation to prepare the rising generation for a

thing for Washington that Adams was a federalist, then

persons whose labors I in part employed has been the

Washington's last words were, "tis well." My last words

side with England or France. Washington wrote to the

time and recognized by many people. Washington is the

charging him with wanting to be king." pg.295.
