Lessons from America’s Founding Leaders | Raleigh News

A bold new project called More Perfect is dropping weekly essays from historians and former presidents, revisiting 250 years of American history to extract timeless lessons for today. Curated by Colleen Shogan—former head of the U.S. Archives who was abruptly let go—this non-partisan series covers 43 past presidents and 30 first ladies (excluding current and recent leaders). George W. Bush opens with Washington’s historic humility in stepping down, while General Stanley McChrystal praises Grant’s principled leadership over political loyalty. The initiative, backed by presidential centers and democracy advocates, aims to offer balanced, accessible historical wisdom to help all Americans navigate the present—with no partisan spin.
