Today is "Presidents' Day". I can remember a time when we acknowledged Lincoln and Washington separately. Now they're lumped together (along with all the others, I presume).
NBC news had a story last night about the latest ranking of the U.S. presidents. Lincoln came out on top with Washington second. One of my devotion guides for today also gave Lincoln that honor, making mention of Washington only as the "father of our country".
I've put a poll in the sidebar questioning your choice for the greatest American president. Please take a moment to register your vote. If you select "other", please leave a comment saying who and why.
