Answer:

He needed to set the stage

Explanation:

George Washington did not run for a third term in office for a couple of reasons. 1, he wanted to show he was not a tyrant, 2, to set an example for future Presidents, and 3, his own declining health (and if he died in office it would create the illusion that being elected President would be for life).
