George Washington possessed physical energy, strength and stamina. He also placed significant emphasis on proper social bearing, appearance and conduct.
A leader must acquire a discipled and orderly mind - one accustomed to thinking hard as his body is inured to working hard for folks to emulate. He escaped moving his 9,000 troops across the East River under cover of darkness and heavy fog, leaving the British astonished.
Chairman Mao had similar encounters with KMT troops in Chinese history.
Washington and Mao appeared on the currencies in USA(One Dollar bill) and in China(RMB) as I have observed their accomplishment in politics with economics. Political economy is in action then and now!
February 26, 1962 President John F. Kennedy met Astronaut Lt. Col. John H. Glenn on Andrews AF base for a modified Joint Armed Services Honors Ceremony held in a hangar due to inclement weather.
We have inclement weather today,Feb.26, 2010 as well. I have also noticed Kennedy coins as a collector of metals with intrinsic value. Currencies are papers with confidence and metals have intrinsic value in philosophical context especially penny from the copper as known.
Francis Shieh a.k.a. Xie Shihao on Feb.26, 2010 at 1.56 p.m.at Andrews AF Base to have such recollections to share with readers of Sino-American Economics.
