[QUOTE="Eric Furgeson, post: 478843, member: 4025"] I have given this a lot of thought and have to say this is a very tough question. But I think I would have to say in my opinion it was George Washington. Because he not only managed to hold his armies together and achive victory over what was at the time the worlds greatset army. He also stepped down from power when he could have truely become a king. He set the example that helped form so much of this nations early history. He was far from purfect and there is much that could be said about him that detracts from the common historical view of him. Still in the end he allowed the power he spent years seaking to pass from him. I find this to be the mark of true leadership. Knowing when it is time to withdraw from power before you do damage to that which you worked to build. Now my question for the next person in line is. What would you identify as the most important advancement of the human race in the last 100 years and why? [/QUOTE]
