Good to see the Canadian school system has a robust US history program.

I honestly and truly can't tell if that's sarcasm.

Teddy Roosevelt. The man was shot and delivered a 75 page (I think, I know it was pretty long) speech anyway. I think if he were president again, a few hearty smacks, and tere would be no more complaining from any political party

Are you inferring that none of the many, many American presidents before Washington did anything of importance?
I heard there were technically many president-esque leaders in the US before Washington.

  I didn't learn some things about my home county until my wife went up North and found that people there knew about the Free State of Jones, that we were never taught about even though we lived there.  <-- If that sentence doesn't make sense I'll blame the U.S. educational system even though it's really my own fault.

BTW, I'd rather be a "Precedent".
