EDRIVERA.COM: "George Washington was elected President of the United States of America by the same system that will be used to elect the President and Vice President in 2012.
The American people have never directly elected the President of the United States of America or President of the United States, instead Presidential Electors, now called the Electoral College, elect one person to the Article II Section 1 Clause 5 Office of President, which consists of the Office of President of the United States of America and President of the United States.
George Washington, in a great conspiracy with the Continental Congress, the Constitutional Convention and practically every State politician, was able to combine the Office of head of State and the head of government into a democratic imitation of the British monarchy that America had recently defeated.
The Constitutional Conspiracy was so successful, perhaps only George Washington and Alexander Hamilton were aware of every detail of the plot."
