Jackson took the money from the Bank of the US and put it in state banks that coincidentally had Jackson on the Board of Directors. These state banks also contributed by printing their own money and increasing inflation.

How many democrats have served as president?
14
I would say nine : Cleveland, Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy,Lyndon Johnson, Carter, Clinton and Obama. Andrew Jackson's Democratic Party elected Jackson, Van Buren, Polk, Pierce and Buchanan, so you get 14 if you add them in to the total. However, the Jackson Democrats split in 1860 and lost all its Southern membership. After the war, a new opposition party arose in 1868 to counter the Republicans and became the modern Democratic Party. It really had few ties to the Jackson Democrats except the name.
When did Andrew Jackson get married to Rachel Donlson Robards and where?

What happen after Andrew Jackson raided Spanish settlements in Florida?
The word "raided" is not the right word. Jackson entered Spanish territory because the Spanish for the most part had ceased to govern. Indians who lived in Spanish territory made raids into US territory and escaped back home with no interference from the Spanish government. Likewise the British gave arms to the Indians, organized them, and incited them to attack people on the US- and the Spanish government which was supposed neutral in the War of 1812 did nothing to stop them.
What eventually happened was that the US gained control of the Spanish territory along the gulf coast and Florida and put a stop to these problems.
