Answer:
An advantage that George Washington had as the first president of the United States was that he was highly respected and had been elected unanimously.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Electoral College unanimously elected Washington in the elections of 1789, and again in the elections of 1792, which is still the only president who has received 100% of the electoral votes. Washington was not an official member of any political party, and all the political currents in the country supported and respected him in all his decisions.
