It’s said that after George Washington led American forces to victory in the Revolutionary War, he was asked if he wanted to be king. He replied that Americans had just spent a lot of time overthrowing one king, so surely they wouldn’t want another one. He agreed to serve as president for a limited period of time before he returned to private life. As time went by, others came up with the closest thing to being a king serving for life in America. That idea was career politicians.
