George Washington was the first president to be chosen by the electoral college, but John Adams was the first president to receive the popular vote of the American people.

No. They cannot because they need to be president and ONLY the presidents can stay in the white house. And ask this question on this website........ Was george Washington the first president to be in the white house? and you'll get an answer.
Neither. We say the title and name together: "President George Washington fought in the Revolutionary War", as opposed to "President, George Washington, fought in the Revolutionary War". To make it an appositive it would need to read: " A president, George Washington, fought in the Revolutionay War". Because then it is reiterating "A president" but isnt necessary for completion of the idea.
George Washington led the US militarily during the American War of Independence against Britain, which it won. After the war, Washington served as the new nation's 1st President. He was a strong, humble leader who put his country first, and helped build the new government after the war..
Martha certainly did not dream to become the wife of a president when she married George. They were married 17 years before independence was declared and 30 years before the first president was elected. I am not sure why she married George . She did not need support, but maybe she needed someone to run her plantation and George had already been successful at running his own plantation. Maybe she just liked his looks and his personality.
