Andrew Jackson

Before Civil Service, the president had the power to appoint the people that filled many government jobs even low ranking ones. Jackson replaced most of the previous presidents' appointment with men who had supported him in his election bid.

There were several figures on the twenty dollar note before Andrew Jackson was permanently placed there in 1928. Among these are Lady Liberty, Pocahontas, Alexander Hamilton, Stephen Decatur, James Garfield, Daniel Manning, John Marshall, Hugh McCulloch, and George Washington.

he die on december 1664 on the northern colonies. just kidding

Andrew Jackson

Among his favorite foods were chicken pilaf, roast duck, fish, jam, and sweet potatoes.

yes, when he became president he got shot in the ribs and died at 79 years old.

He went back to his plantation home in Nashville. He was in poor health and getting

pretty old, but he kept abreast with national politics and wrote letters and pieces

for the papers.

Control of government by the rich

Thomas Jefferson believed the true path to social mobility was through education. He wanted to assure at least a fundamental education for all, and wanted the doors to higher education left open so that even a talented poor person would not be kept from getting a higher education and moving up socially.

Jackson was married in August 1791, age 24, to Rachel Donelson Robards. However, a technical problem about the validity of this marriage led to the ceremony being repeated in Jan 1794, when Jackson was 26.

no he had 2 brothers that were older than him

Cause he got into a duel with some dude who insulted his wife and he wore a big coat to the duel. He stood sideways, and when the guy shot his gun, it was hard to tell where Jackson was in the huge coat he was wearing. The bullet caught him under the arm pit and went into his lung. Then, he steadied himself, took aim, and plugged the guy.

So he could actually say he took a bullet for his wife.

Of course he did. He learned to fear and hate Indians from an early age and was known to be a bold and resourceful Indian fighter, thirsting for 'encounters with savages. In negotiating sessions, he always addressed Indians as though they were children, irrespective of their age, education, or intellectual maturity. The removal of Native Americans west of the Mississippi River, known as the Trail of Tears, happened on his account. Andrew Jackson lacked patience, and by his pressure to move things along quickly he caused unspeakable cruelties to innocent people who deserved better from a nation that prided itself on its commitment to justice and equality. It's a shame his face is on every $20 Note! (Quotes are from the Book: Andrew Jackson and his Indian Wars, by Robert V. Remini)

He was originally a member of the Democratic-Rupublican Party. When he ran for President the second time, his supporters said he was a member of the Democratic Party.

the Waxhaw Settlement an area just south of Charlotte, North Carolina, to Lancaster, South Carolina; and from Monroe, North Carolina in the east to the Catawba River in the west. The region is generally forested and hilly, but not mountainous. One town in the region has taken on the name, but it is only one site in the region.

Jackson ignored Worcester v. Georgia. This was significant because Andrew Jackson ignored the Supreme Court's decision which said that Georgia couldn't make laws that broke the terms on the authority of which the Cherokee's have the right to govern themselves on. Many people ask can he ignore the Supreme Court? Or, Why didn't the Supreme Court do anything about it? And do you know what I would say. idk. :)

Harrison ran a "log cabin" campaign as a war hero and a man of the people as Andrew Jackson had done when he won the presidency. Martin Van Buren was portrayed as a wealthy snob who was wasting the country's money.

If you mean the trial for contempt of a federal judge in New Orleans in the aftermath of the battle there, yes. He was found guilty and fined $1000, which he paid.

There were six presidents before Jackson. The first five were all founding fathers who were active in the revolutionary government and setting up the new government under the Constitution which they helped to write. There were all from old established families and lived near the East Coast. The sixth President was the son of the second. Jackson represented a big shift in political power. He lived on the western frontier and was the son of poor immigrants.

Jackson probably supported slavery and he owned many himself. As an advocate of the farming states, he supported slavery yet he also supported an evenly balanced union between slave and non-slave states.

Andrew Johnson was never elected President. He was elected President Lincoln's Vice-President and ascended to the presidency on April 15, 1865, following Lincoln's assassination. Having been a Democrat most of his political life and findng himself abandoned by the Republican party, he joined the reformed Democratic party and made an effort to get the nomination for a second term, but was unsuccessful. Several years later , he was elected as US Senator from TN.

Jackson veto the second bank of the united states because Jackson did not always support federal power opposed second bank of the united states because he belived it was unconstitutional he thought only states should have banking power.

EXTRA*southern states opposed the bank because they belived it only helped the weathly so they are also unhappy with this*;)

The economy tanked after Jackson left office. The bad economic times no doubt caused the defeat of Jackson's successor. Van Buren , when he ran for a second term in 1840 .

Martin Van Buren agreed with Jackson's Indian policy. The Indian Removal Act was passed by Congress in 1830, and signed into law by President Andrew Jackson.
