Washington had many disadvantages in the Revolution but was able to accomplish his mission because of his strategic vision. By contrast, Lee was a great tactician but failed in his mission despite having excellent troops, good supplies and capable subordinates. Washington is grossly underrated as a general.
George Washington was destined for greatness, not unlike, Themistokles, Alexander The Great and Julius Caesar. These men were born to create what we call history!
I concur. Washington was great and you, General Powell, should follow in his footsteps and become President. The nation needs to return to the rule of law and order. Who better to bring us there than you?
Very informative and great video of the historical significance of our first President of the United States. AND...I wish you, Sir, would have ran for the Presidency!
If he had done a 3rd term he never would have gone out on that fateful winter night. I know he's been gone for a long time but it kinda annoys me he missed the next century by two weeks. After what he sacrificed for this country it would have been nice for him to usher the country into the next century.
That's why we produce content on our website. For example, this page that shows all of the portraits that Washington sat for: www.mountvernon.org/george-washington/artwork/life-portraits-of-george-washington/
Wow I find it ironic that a “weapons of mass distraction” liar like Powell, speaks of a great man who said “Speak the truth and follow it steadfastly.”
The US Armed Forces may have to re-establish the Constitution snd Bill of Rights, given what has happened under the Buden Tyranny, which rivals anything King George imposed on the Colonies.

A great man talking about another great man. What's not to like? Thank you fo the video.
A general talking about the greatest general!

One of the best speaking about the greatest!😉✌🏾
How many people would walk away from being made KING? That says a lot about the man.
I wonder what George Washington thinks of Aluminum Tubes?
Wonderful account of a great patriot, by a great patriot.

You know...most people wouldn’t recognize a painting of Washington except for printed image on the dollar bill.

George Washington was a great man. Colin Powell isn't worthy to discuss him.
I wonder if Trump - or his voters - know even a particle of this. My guess is not.
I wonder if libtards who voted for Crooked Hillary know even a particle of this. I don't have to guess. I know they don't.
Truptards can't admit they voted for a draft dodger.
@@The10folks Its pure irony that I am reading this in the comment section of a video about a man that warned us about the danger of party
