Andrew Jackson

Peace treaty! <3 (-<)

no since he was the only southern representative to not secede during the formation of the confederacy

Maybe because that was his platform and how he viewed his election. He campaigned as

a candidate of change , who would end the corruption that had become commonplace

in the 28 years that the previous ruling party had been in power. He wanted to stop the

raiding of the federal treasury , to balance the budget, pay off the national debt and

refund the excess to the states for their own domestic improvements.

It was on the Baltimore and Ohio line. I do not know if the train , itself, had a name.

Jackson rode it for about 12 miles, in order to get into the city of Baltimore from

the Washington Turnpike.

Some who come to mind are John Overton, Edward Livingston, John Henry Eaton, Amos Kendall, Francis Blair and William Lewis.

Of course his wife was also his friend. There were very close.

Indians killed his family that's why he never liked Indians.(Actually the British killed his family, not Native Americans)

Andrew Jackson is farmhouse because he was the 7th President of the United States! Plus he was the first president to start a programme to get ride of the native Americans on the land

Yes, as is every president. Some see him as a hero; others believe he was a villain. Some portray him as the common man's warrior, a president who attacked a political system that ignored the people's will. Others say that he was a political tyrant, an executive bully who disrespected the processes and institutions essential to republican government. Some celebrate his liberal defense of individual rights; others condemn his racist removal of 90,000 Indians. Some view him as a great nationalist who saved the Union by denouncing nullification. Others claim that he weakened the nation by supporting Georgia in its defiance of the Supreme Court.

They ran away to africa...... They ran away to africa......

Until the Civil Service system was put into the place. The US President filled a large of number of federal jobs , including low-level positions by making appointments.

Before Jackson, most of the job-holders were re-appointed when a new President took office. Jackson was elected by his newly formed party and he decided to fill most of the jobs with his supporters as a reward for helping him win election. The phrase, "to the victor belong the spoils", came to mind and the practice of turning over the employees became known as the "spoils system"

Alienation of the public was the result of Andrew Jackson's frequent use of the veto. It also cost his party's next candidate to lose the next presidential election.

Andrew Jackson thought that the BUS (bank of the united states) was biased against westerners.

The Seminoles had more than one uprising. The first conflict occurred 1814-1819 while James Monroe was President. The second Seminole War began late in Andrew Jackson;s second term when the government attempted to move the Seminoles out of Florida. It continued through all of Martin Van Buren's term and finally died down after William Harrison and John Tyler took office. James Buchanan was president during what might be called the third and last Seminole war.

Jackson was deeply opposed to nullifiction, but he was worried about the economic issues in the southern states, so he passed another tariff to lower the previous rate.

I think that he was a very good president, given what he's been through( was an orphan, was shot at twice, actually had a bullet in him his whole life, was captured by british soldiers). Did you know he is the only president to get our country out of natinol debt?Id like to see Obama try and do that.

The Sherman Silver Purchase Act in 1890 required that all western to be purchased was paid for in either silver or gold. The United States was trying to buy up all of the silver that was circulated so that the country could adopt the gold standard for money.

because he lived in tennessee and the family business was being a tailor

Andrew Jackson was the first president to use the veto against laws that he disagreed with, even if he believed they were constitutional. The previous presidents had restricted their vetoes to laws they thought violated the constitution. Jackson was president for eight years and was an active president. He was best known for vetoing the re-charter of the second bank of the US and withdrawing federal funds from it.

His father died before Jackson was born.His mother died in 1781 when her son Andrew was 14 years old.His older brother died that same year.His wife Rachel died on December 22,1828 just three weeks after Jackson won the presidential election of 1828.

No, Jackson did not go to college . He learned law by 'reading" law with two different lawyers. Lawyers in those days would "read" law with people who wanted to become lawyers, which meant they became like interns, doing what chores they could do until they were able to take the bar exam and get their license to practice.

Jackson was born on the western frontier, and was a military leader, not one of the highly-educated intellectual politicians of his time. Thus, he was seen as kindred to the common man. He was one of the first true American populists.

There were no national parties who put up presidential candidates in 1824. Jackson was nominated by the Tennessee legislature and being well-known as a war hero picked up considerable support outside of Tennessee. None - the party system had broken down

Because that is what he was.

He started with no family, wealth or connections. No one paid to give him an education and nobody paved his way to national prominence. He was able to marry a woman that had some family connections, but that was due to his own charm and initiative. He did not start with any advantages except his own looks and intelligence.
