Which is the most likely reason George Washington refused a third term as president? He felt a third term would give one man too much power. He didn't think the citizens would support him for a third term. He did not want to be away from his home for four more years. He believed he had not met the challenges he should have in two terms.

Respuesta :

He didn’t want power to turn him to a monster if you know what I mean. For example somewhere in the world there may be a greedy president who wants to stay in power forever and that means he would go to any lengths to make sure he stays in power even if it means hurting his country.

Answer: He felt a third term would give one man too much power.

Explanation:

Washington asked for prudence from those who insisted on him going for a third term. Although most Americans wanted him to keep his position in the Chair of Government, Washington realized he should set a precedent that the longer anyone stayed in power, the less democratic it would be, because changes in leadership are a key element of American democracy.
