Is this a trick or humorous question?
George Washington was the 1st pres. of the United States.
Peyton Randolph was the first president of the 1st Continental Congress. The members of the 1st Continental Congress chose him as president.
If you are including the Continental Congress then it looks like this:
The Continental Congress, 1774 to 1781
1.(1774) Peyton Randolph
a. from Virginia
b. 1st President of the 1st Continental Congress
2.(1774) Henry Middleton
a. from South Carolina
b. Served 5 days; Owned 800 Slaves
3.(1775) Peyton Randolph (second term)
a. from Virginia
b. 1st President of the 2nd Continental Congress
4.(1776 to 77) John Hancock
a. from Boston, Mass.
b. 1st Signer of Declaration of Independence
5.(1777 to 78) Henry Laurens
a. from South Carolina
b. Outspoken critic of governmental corruption
6.(1778 to 79) John Jay
a. from New York
b. Monetary collapse; also tried & censured Thomas Paine
7.(1779 to 81) Samuel Huntington
a. from Connecticut
b. 1st President under Articles of Confederation
Then there was what was considered to bethe United States from 1781 to 1789:
8.(1781) Thomas McKeon
a. from Delaware
b. Served 4 months
9.(1781 to 82) John Hanson
a. from Maryland
b. Swedish ancestry; oldest president, at 60
10.(1782 to 83) Elias Boudinot
a. from New Jersey
b. Also Secretary for Foreign Affairs
11.(1783 to 84) Thomas Mifflin
a. from Pennsylvania
b. Peace Treaty with Great Britain ratified
12.(1784 to 85) Richard Henry Lee
a. from Virginia
b. Later a leading Anti-Federalist
13.(1785) John Hancock (second term)
a. from Boston, Mass.
b. Resigned due to ill health
14.(1786) Nathaniel Gorham
a. from Boston, Mass.
b. Invited Prince Henry of Prussia to become King of U.S.
15.(1787) Arthur St. Clair
a. Born in Scotland
b. Northwest Ordinance passed
16.(1787 to 89) Cyrus Griffin

b. New Federal Constitution approved
Then George was president from 1789 to 1797 and is considered to be the "1st pres"

he's as possible a candidate as any and could be evaluated for his skills and political song checklist. In different words - what has he achieved? it rather is the significant to any candidate - their checklist and their ability. it rather is a form of "cloud the matters" approaches, very like the call calling with Hillary Clinton, and the whole woman crying non-tale. It has no genuine effect. Many minority communities have traditionally won capability, cultural confirmation and political ability via their church homes. each cultural group in united statesa. seems back on it rather is history, it rather is purely the white immigrants/human beings that are taken to activity approximately it. human beings won't say "they are no longer rather African" approximately African human beings because of fact they're going to then be branded as racists, yet they're going to say "they are no longer rather Italian" approximately an Italian American. i does not examine into it plenty. human beings have consistently had twin identities. It comes from being this form of recent us of a and from our immigrant history. it rather is valid, I haven't any concern with it. maximum human beings have roots someplace else. If he chooses to honor his history, why is that a project? questioning for ones self, no longer blind allegiance, is a key element of being an American. i do no longer see his Church club as a project. This argument is analogous to that positioned forth approximately JFK while he ran for President - that his allegiance could be to the Pope, to no longer the U. S. as he became god forbid, a Catholic. His loss of a political song checklist and inexperience is extra troubling than any of the racial matters being cited.
