5 0

Answer:

John Adams (1735-1826) was a leader of the American Revolution, and served as the second U.S. president from 1797 to 1801. The Massachusetts-born, Harvard-educated Adams began his career as a lawyer. Intelligent, patriotic, opinionated and blunt, Adams became a critic of Great Britain’s authority in colonial America and viewed the British imposition of high taxes and tariffs as a tool of oppression. During the 1770s, he was a delegate to the Continental Congress. In the 1780s, Adams served as a diplomat in Europe and helped negotiate the Treaty of Paris (1783), which officially ended the American Revolutionary War (1775-83). From 1789 to 1797, Adams was America’s first vice president. He then served a term as the nation’s second president. He was defeated for another term by Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826).

It seemed like everyone was happy to have Washington as the executive
Gekata [30.6K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Knowing what I know about Washington's past, what I think he meant by this quote: "the office chooses the man" is the following.

For General George Washington, that quote meant that sometimes in the life of a man, he has to accept the fact that although you do not want some, your responsibility is to accept some kind of job because you are the one who has the knowledge and experience to do it right.

Maybe is difficult, maybe is tough, but only a few brave men have the talent to do it. So it is not a matter of if you like it or want it. It is that you are the one with the credentials to do it right.

And this was the case of George Washington the first President of the United States.
