Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
In 1787 he was 81 and he was in poor health, so in the election of 1789 he declined, not to mention that it was generally assumed Washington would take the presidency!. He died before the next election!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would say no, I have not seen or heard anything along the lines of him wanting or being asked to run for president!. I believe he was content in his position!. And Loved the lady's to much to take on such a role!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
