Andrew Jackson

Yes, he knew what the United States needed most and therefore he made a decision and acted upon it.

because ..

he was awsome !!

He was legally elected . His national standing came mostly from his heroic victory over the British in 1815. People who lived in areas threatened by Indians appreciated his success in putting down most of the threats. The population of the US was moving westward and the first presidents were all wealthy easterners from old families. Jackson who was from the West and his parents were poor immigrants from Ireland. This fact undoubtedly made Jackson seem more likely to understand the problems of people in the West.

He practiced law and was later a judge. He served as an army officer for awhile and was a congressman, senator and of course President. He speculated in land, owned a store for a time and owned a plantation for many years. He also bred and raced horses which he bet on.

The extension of voting rights to all white males.

In March 1814, Andrew Jackson defeated the Creek Indians at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend in Alabama. This was the last of serious armed resistance made by Indians

He came to believe and was the first president to so claim, that his power came from the people, that he was elected by the people, to serve the people's interests and not the servant of the Congress, as the Congress and previous presidents seemed to believe.

He made the bank a campaign issue in the election of 1832, thus giving the people a chance to show their will and when he won, he took the vote as a vote against the bank.

Jackson served 2 terms while adams had 1. jackson was democratic and adams was democratic republican. jackson was liked and adams was not.

There appear to be no records of Andrew Jackson's view on equality for women. It's possible it was never recorded or he never had to deal with a women's rights movement during his time as president.

true

Andrew Jackson is a demagogue because:

1. He lied to the nation by saying John Adams procured an American prostitute for the Russian tzar on his trip there as an envoy.

2. He violated the constitution by over-riding supreme court's decision not to throw out the cherookee from Georgia.

3. He had no concern for Human rights hence throwing out all the Cherookee tribes from Georgia and saying "they are not really a nation" and they are "savages".

4. He destroyed the national bank for personal issues he was quoted as saying "The Bank is trying to kill me but I will kill it"

5. He was not popular among other politicians he was only famous for the battle of New Orleans, first time he ran for presidency he lost to John Quincy Adams and the election was thrown in the House of Representatives and John Clay and nearly all other politicians threw their support for John Quincy Adams.

6. Even Thomas Jefferson, the author of declaration of Independence and the Virginia Statue of religious freedom and one of the most influential of founding fathers to date said "He is the most unfit man to be the president"

7. The so-called Jacksonian Revolution created more wealthy Jacksonians than the ones they disposed.

8. The "spoils system" which he introduced eliminated all the seasoned and experienced politicians and replaced them with illiterate farmers who had no political experience whatsoever just so he could gain their support (farmers made up 90% of the population) or he rewarded these offices to his friends who had supported his campaign.

Andrew Jackson was not impeached; Andrew Johnson was. When the Radical Republicans were in charge of Congress, they hoped that the South was punished severely, and Johnson talked tough about Reconstruction. Andrew Johnson then proceeded to do exactly opposite of what he had promised, vetoing every act that helped the new freedmen and allowing a swift and extremely lenient reunion for the Southern states. The Radical Republicans were astonished and tried to kick him from the position of President.

He passed the bar at age 20, in 1787. He probably did some legal work until he was appointed a major general in 1812, the answer to your question is about 25 years.

Because he dreamed of the greatness of America and the good it could do for the world.

Jackson was not fond of paper money. He didn't want to use it because many of the state banks issued paper money without making sure that they had the gold and silver to back it up. The value of paper money fluctuated frequently and therefore it could not relied upon.

equal protection and benefits

Voting whites was extended to white males who weren't as wealthy or didn't own as much property as others. Jackson wanted to support or ''help'' the ''common men'' to have the same rights as others. So, many of the men voted for him.

He believed that almost any one was qualified to hold federal jobs and saw no reason to reappoint people who had been appointed by past presidents who were unfriendly to Jackson.

He also thought it a reasonable way to reward people who had helped elect him

and so filled government jobs with common citizens who had helped to elect him.

Though it was speculated for some time that the world was round, not everyone believed so until the 3rd century BC, when it was firmly established. Much later, Ferdinand Magellan and Juan Sebastian Elcano circled the globe, proving this theory.

Even though Andrew Jackson was relatively wealthy, he campaigned as a common person. He stood for the rights of everyone whether they were rich or poor.

Yes, I think any reasonable person would say that he did. He was a strong leader, knew

what he wanted to do, and that offended some, but he also was a politician and knew how

to get his ideas forwarded and accepted. The fact the he was re-elected after some

controversy indicated that he had good leadership skills.
