1792
because people LOVED him
No, John Adams, George Clinton, Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr were all candidates, but Washington was a shoo in.
George Washington received 100% of the electoral votes and was unanimously reelected President in 1792. In the 1984 election Ronal Regan received 525 (97.58%) of the 538 electoral votes and was reelected President.
He was 60 in the election of 1792, which he won easily. He was 61 when inaugurated for his second term (March 4, 1793).
Barack Obama, first elected in 2008 and reelected in 2012, is the 44th President of the United States. The first American President was George Washington.

Because we took a vote and he won!
George Washington
Washington was elected president in 1789 with zero competition. He was reelected a second time and would have won again a third time in a complete landslide however he decided to set a precedent that lasted 150 years.
The order ended any chance he had to be reelected.
George Washington
Nothing. George Washington Carver was born after George Washington had died.
