Yes, because they need more room for their settlement and took advanatage of the Native Americans and didn't care about if the died or if they got sick. the trail they traviled was The Trial of Tears which ran through the state of Kentucy into Hopkinsville. They also took the Indians' land because they also heard that there was gold in California.
War of 1812 wasn't the first fight against settlers, for example, The French & Indian War. By 1812, Native Americans had several hundred years of lies, broken promises, failed treaties, etc. All the way back to the British promising that settlers would not cross the Appalachian and Allegheny Mountains in PA (but settlers did) or the Blue Ridge Mountains (but settlers did), the "white man" (British, French, Spaniards) did not keep their word. Though depicted as "savages", Native Americans had strong values and more so, peaceful values. They were pushed more than once, and sometimes had to fight back.
It made no real change to them at all. It is sad to say that they (Native Americans) were always pushed off their lands, killed, or just robbed of anything of value that the American Government or its people wanted.

The Louisiana Purchase included territories held by the Choctaw and Caddo tribes as well as various smaller tribes. Although talks of an independent nation for these people was introduced, it did not go far. Thomas Jefferson was not quite so stringent in his love of freedom when it came to non- white Americans. His policy was basically one that encouraged expansion by white settlers and pushed the Native American people further west, out of the way.

The simple answer was / is: Move or Die.The cultures between Native American's and European settlers were completely opposite of each other.
European settlers wanted to have farms and raise livestock.
Native American's were NOT moved onto reservations in the great plains in the early 1800's, it was the late 1800's. They were moved there for the same reasons they were always pushed into these areas; the US Government and its people wanted their land and its natural resources.

Most of the decimation of the Native American population after 1500 resulted from the need for more and more land. The Colonists and others came to America and literally pushed the Native Americans off of their homelands.
Some of the factors that contributed to Andrew Jackson's push for the Indian Removal Act were his belief in westward expansion and the desire for white settlers to have access to Native American lands. Jackson also believed that removing Native Americans from their ancestral lands and relocating them to designated territories would lead to their assimilation into white American society. Additionally, Jackson viewed Native American tribes as impediments to American progress and thought that removing them would eliminate conflicts and promote economic growth.
The US government was hostile to native Americans throughout the 18th, and 19th centuries. It had a policy of protecting it own citizens at all costs. As a result, when settlers would move into an area inhabited by Indians, fighting would ensue, and this almost always lead to the Native Americans being pushed back into an ever decreasing amount of land. Many Indians were killed outright, by disease, war, and famine. Others assimilated into American society, and became American citizens.
President Andrew Jackson ' s policie that effected the native americans was the Indian removal act which millitary forces pushed all native americans to the west and away from there homeland.

Cutting to the bottomline, the white settlers simply, overtime pushed the Native Americans form the East to further and further west. The US broke treaties with the Native Tribes and caused havoc among them. They were force into "Indian Reservations". Their homelands were all taken away. This happened all over the Western Hemisphere. Whether it was the Spanish, British, French or the US, their land was taken.
As the settlers pushed back the indians, the "middle gound" also moved west.
