  2. I know one person who is sort of a leader, George Washington. He tecnically is a leader because he was an army leader. I like how he would never give up even when he lost terribly.

  3. An important leader was Patrick Henry because he said, "Give me liberty or give me death." It is now New Hampshire's license plate logo because it was very important.
    Another important leader was Goerge Washington. Even before he was president, he was a general in the army. Some say without him, we wouldn't have won our freedom. He was also the first president makig him very important to all of the United States.
