So let me get this straight. You're not sure about the reportage of any event for which you weren't present. But you're certain Washington wasn't president until 1789. How do you know there was a year 1789?

No, it means you don't understand that "President of the CONGRESS" and "President of the United States" are not the same.Quote:

Technically that was another country, a collection of allied countries to be precise.Quote:

Franklin was escorted around by armed guards to make sure he wouldn't accidentally leak the secret meetings to the public. It was an illegal coup!
Before the ratification of the constitution, we were not 1 country but a collection of individual sovereign states. Therego the COUNTRY as a single unit, starts ~15 years after the birth of our country.
Of course not. The moon belongs to Gidney & Cloyd. If Armstrong had actually taken that step, he would've gotten scrootched for sure.Quote:

We don't do "parliament". The President is NOT a member of Congress.Quote:
