No-

I do not think that there is any reasonably possibility that he did. He was of the son of Irish immigrants who were not at all likely to have had any black blood-- there were not many blacks in Ireland in those days.

There is no historical evidence to suggest that Andrew Jackson had black ancestry. Jackson was of Scotch-Irish descent and there is no documentation or credible claims to support any African heritage in his lineage.

Where is the proof that president Andrew Jackson was half black?

There wouldn't be any. Andrew Jackson was not half black. His father was of black heritage, meaning his ancestors came from a race considered black by the people of the United States. Andrew Jackson had a brother who was of a much darker complexion than other members of his immediate family. In the U.S., you are considered black if you have one drop of black blood in you. Take Barack Obama for example: he is half black (his father) and half white (his mother). He is considered black because of his paternal line. However, he was raised in a white home with white values. Saying he is the first black president in the US is misleading. He is the first half black president who acknowledges his black half. Jackson was also a slave owner, owning up to 300 slaves during his life. If he was black, or even half black, this would not have been possible.
