This is the real vision of the revolution. These stalwart soldiers with bandages for shoes never gave up. It was the great statesman and general George Washington who would never give up until victory was made In spite of their stressed out condition, he inspired them to carry on.
Dear Ones,
They were sick with fever, dysentery and chilled to the bone, in freezing weather. Crippled and exhausted they obeyed orders in well-trained disciple. Many of these same strong men became the first United States Administration. This great force had to time to twitter away precious times playing futile political games and causing corruption.
They included the first president, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine who had a helping in writing the Constitution with Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and James Madison. But beyond their fortitude, was something just as much quintessential to run a government.. It was their honesty and determination that all men shall be free through equality that brings happiness.
Washington was such a hero he was offered the position of king. But he reminded them that they had just come to the so-called new world to rid themselves of the Crown. And and it took a real man to turn down all the power. He didn't let his vanity persuade him.
Unfortunately some parts of the nation resisted the slaver clause that later blew back to them in the Civil War, caused more than 7000,000 deaths during the war and in its aftermath. Women in a patriarchal society eventually became organized and achieved their own emancipation.
