in WWI and WWII the US tried to follow the policy of isolation that Washington recomended however eventually they joined the war |
In this address Washington first mentions that he not going to run for a third term, in which later becomes a precedent for all later presidents other than Roosevelt. He then proceeds to thank the American people for all they have done for him. He also warns them about problems that may or may not arise in the future. In an attempt to set another precedent, he says to never allow for political parties, which didn't work out. He brings up several times the importance of the ideals of the declaration and the constitution and how people and the government should continue to operate based off of it because that is how they will reach prosperity
