Transcription: George Washington was born into an American colonial family of wealth and status in 1732. Washington was a skilled farmer, trader, surveyor, and manager. People admired his intellect, kindliness, charm, and dignity. But it was Washington's deeply held ideals of liberty, justice, and democracy that made him so well qualified to lead the colonies to victory in the American Revolution to be chairman of the Constitutional Convention and to be the first President of the United States.
