It wasn't George Washington.. Before the actual USA was formed.. they had the first Continental govt I think it was John Hanson..
1715—83, first "President of the United States in Congress Assembled," b. Charles co., Maryland. He served in the Maryland provincial legislature, was active in the patriot cause in the Revolution, and was (1780—82) a member of the Continental Congress. Since he was the first President to serve the one-year term (1781—82), under the Articles of Confederation, Hanson is sometimes referred to as the first President of the United States. His duties were, however, merely those of a presiding officer and bore no relation to the duties of the President under the Constitution.

I don't live in the US, but I remember hearing somewhere that George Washington WASN'T the first president. I think it was in the Bonus Features in the DVD of the movie "Treasure Hunt" (I think that's the name) with Nicolas Cage. If I remember right, there was an "r" in the name.
