The Presidents most important duty is that of Commander in Chief of our nations military - defending the United States, its territories and possessions, and its armed forces from attack, both foreign and domestic. Throughout our nations history, no President has wielded the authority of Commander in Chief as well as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin D. Roosevelt. As the Commander in Chief of the Continental Army, George Washington was the one person whose determined sense of patriotic duty and unserving dedication to independence made our nation possible. Abraham Lincolns only military experience had been as captain of a militia unit that saw no action in the Black Hawk War, and yet he utilized an innate sense of strategy and his power to remove and select commanders to end the Civil War that threatened to tear our nation apart. As President throughout much of World War II, Franklin D. Roosevelt left the military strategy to his generals, and put his skills to use on the domestic front to galvanize the entire nation in support for wartime efforts abroad. Undoubtedly, the most stressful part of the Presidents responsibilities is the role of Commander in Chief where he must weigh the risk of American lives against every threat to our nation so the American way of life will be protected for future generations.
