This Day in History: The first presidential veto

Very few people know the frist bill Washington wrote for congress to pass he understood that the president was to take it before Congress himself. So he walked uop to congress and presented it, They treated him with so much disrepect over the bill he never went back personally to present a bill. No president has since.

Washington also didn't overuse the veto and only applied it to items that actually were a problem and also not showing favoritism to any group unlike much of what We see today in its misuse !

Thank You Brother Dale for this story about George Washington's first veto. I guess somebody had to do it.
