Thomas JeffersonANS2:Bah! Jefferson did not have the nickname of 'Old Ironside'. In fact, none of the US presidents had that nickname. The USS Constitution had that nickname because cannonballs bounced off her oak sides.
The President with the nickname the butcher was Ulysses S. Grant. Another common nickname for him was Sam as his initials U.S. stood for Uncle Sam.
The origin is unknown, but the nickname was popularized in 1899 by US Representative Willard Vandiver in a speech before Congress. The context was "I'm from Missouri and you have to show me" meaning that the inhabitants were not easily convinced and required proof of any premise.

Lots of places in the USA have claimed this as their nickname - the Cumberland Gap mountains, Oklahoma and Pittsburgh among them. Probably the modern contender for the title is St. Louis in Missouri, which boasts the tallest (man-made) monument in the USA, The Gateway Arch. The Gateway Arch is a symbol of the US expansion westward.
There were several presidents that went to Nelson Mandela's funeral. President Obama from the US attended.
