LAD #7 Washington's Farewell Address

In Washington’s Farewell Address, he states that he will no longer be continuing on to another term of presidency and then continues to list important ideas that America should take note of. He voices his opinion to avoid a party system for it will create internal tension and makes the country vulnerable to corruption. He also states that he wants that U.S to stay neutral and not to make enemies or allies. Washington also goes on to saying that he believes a strong central government will hold the states together along with splitting the power of the governments between the federal and state governments. Another idea that Washington clams is that an overly strong military will threat their liberty and refrain from one. Finally, Washington thanks the American citizens for doing him the honor of leading the United States.
