<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 506064, member: 66"]Not so much resigned as chose not to accept the office again. You have to remember that at that point in time the idea of someone in power, especially the "top office", voluntarily stepping down from office was pretty much unheard of. Washington could have pretty much held onto the job and been "President for life" with no trouble. But instead he stepped down or "resigned" and allowed someone else to take over.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
