What are some of Andrew Jacksons failures?

His largest failure is in not representing the American people. Jackson used the power of the veto more than any other US president. The house and senate have more people and thus a more accurate representation of the will of the people. Jackson often went against this will to do what he wanted; to do his will. Example: After Jackson passed the Indian Removal Act (1830) the Cherokees fought their removal using the law. The Supreme Court ruled that the Cherokees could not be forced to give up their land against their will. Jackson ignore this and continued his support of removal. source: A History of the American People (AP edition)- Faragher and others. Another Example: The Bank War (a struggle between Jackson and the supporters of the 2nd Bank of the US). Jackson, again against the will of the people, refused to renew the charter of the second bank. Political and Economic consequences ensued. Led to our current policy of laissez faire ( <----guess what led to our recent recession).
