The correct answer is C) Precedent of term limits, because he is declining consideration to be the leader of the United States.
The text represents precedent of term limits because he is declining consideration to be the leader of the United States.
President could have the opportunity to be elected for the presidency one again but he discarded that option. He had promised not to seek unfair power being part of the government of the United States. He had no ambition to do that. He wanted to serve his country and he did so as General of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War and later, as President of the US. Furthermore, he did not need the money, he already was a rich man.
