This may sound really weird to you guys. But I'm just wondering who you guys think would be a better President if they were alive today? George Washington or Abraham Lincoln?
washington was a decent leader. I guess I would go with him. he was ahead of his time. lincoln lead the country through a tough time, but I still say washington. if you gave me an option, I would take jefferson over anyone this country has ever seen.

Let me know what you think...
If they were alive today both would be way too senile to be president, since George Washington would be almost as old as John McCain while Abraham Lincoln would be old enough to be one of John McCain's great grandkids.
and barack obama would be swimming around in the bean bag of both of them.

So you're saying that Barack Obama is to be conceived by the combined sperms of the still-living George Washington and Abraham Lincoln? If that is the case then truly he must be the Chosen One, the malest manly man on the planet with not a single X chromosome. In fact I would venture to say that if you don't vote for him, yet know what you have proclaimed to be the truth, you are in fact a malevolent fate-meddler who wishes to spit in the face of Destiny Itself.

I get what you're trying to say, age aka A.G.E. is an acronym for the "Abraham/George Experiment," the secret project in which the world's first eggless conception shall form the rebirth of Barack Obama, whose greatness shall shine over the land like a beacon of A.G.E., aka "Astoundingly Glorious E-lumination," (that last word's a symbol of the information age and our growing reliance on electronic media for our daily lifestyle maintenance, something that Barack Obama understands and that John McCain want smash with him caveman club.) By the way, you don't have to try to blow my mind with your cryptic word puzzles man, I can see through your thin facade of simplicity to the complex intertangled fabric of sublime meaning that you have intricately woven beneath such words as "age" and "the." It is in my blood to discover such truths.
But to answer the OP's question, I think Abraham Lincoln would be a better president simply because with George Washington too many people would be able to keep their "W The President" stickers on their cars, which would confuse me and cause my head to explode because I wouldn't know whether to respect their opinion or be annoyed by it.

Lincoln was a power grabbing fascist no matter how worthy his cause was. He single handedly sent 650,000 Americans to their graves.
Washington by far was the better man.
This is especially true when you add the fact that "slavery" was not his real reason for war. The war was really over state's rights. Ending slavery was a welcome result, but it is time people knew that Lincoln was not the savior of the slaves. The slaves were simply a good cover story he and the government used to justify their war against the southern states.
