Editorial: Like Washington, may all presidents transcend party to serve all citizens

On April 30, 1789, George Washington was sworn into office as the first president of the United States. His birthday of Feb. 22 became a federal holiday that gave way to the modern Presidents Day. He had many things in common with the other 44 men whose roles we observe today. Like him, seven others were born in Virginia. There were 11 other slave owners. Eleven either farmed or grew up on farms. Twenty-five were in the military, and 11 were generals. He contracted smallpox like Abraham Lincoln. Twelve served two full terms. He was married 40 years, until his death widowed his wife, like Franklin Roosevelt and Zachary Taylor.

OUR VIEW: Learning from past presidents

â¢ McAlester News-Capital Editorial Board Jan 30, 2021 McAlester News-Capital office File photo It was, perhaps, the most contentious presidential election in U.S. history with hyper-partisanship stoking division and muddying the lines between fact and fiction. Voters separated into two diametrically opposed camps, depending on which version of reality they accepted. As the December date for the Electoral College counting of the votes neared, not all states had submitted their certified slates of electors. Pennsylvania, for example, was in a stalemate as their legislators argued. Even after the Electoral College certified the results, the situation remained unresolved as Congress took up the issue in January. At one point, things seemed hopelessly deadlocked. Some said a civil war was imminent and that it was impossible for the union to exist much longer.
