Andrew Johnson

Not much in the long run. Short-term, it made him more cautious about opposing Congressional Reconstruction, but as his term had in any case only nine months left to run, the effect was marginal.

Basically, the impeachment was something of a "temper tantrum" on the part of Congressional Republicans, with little real significance.

Vice President Andrew Johnson took over the Presidency when President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in April, 1865. Vice President Lyndon Johnson took over the Presidency when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in November, 1963.

The Radical Republicans wanted to impeach Tennessee-native President Andrew Johnson because they perceived him to be a Southern sympathizer who wanted to allow the Southern states that had seceded back into the Union immediately and almost unconditionally. They saw Johnson as a threat to their Reconstruction plans.

The conflict over Reconstruction was the underlying reason for Johnson's impeachment; the stated reason for impeachment was that he violated the 1867 Tenure of Office Act by (attempting to) fire Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton, among other things.

In February 1868, the US House of Representatives voted to bring eleven articles of impeachment against Johnson. He was later acquitted at his Senate trial.

He had his 62nd birthday on March 15, 1829, after being sworn in as President on March 4/

Andrew Johnson's economy was ok when he was president. Although he was born poor, through his hard work he was able to make pretty delightful salaries.

he was cruel

While Andrew Johnson was impeached because of his handling of his job as president, he was not convicted. He missed conviction by one vote in the US Senate. The senator said that he did not deserve to be convicted and that the charges were petty and meaningless.

Johnson was a Senator from Tennessee, a slave state, and had been a Democrat. He was added to the Lincoln ticket to attract votes from southern sympathizers, not because anybody considered as a presidential candidate. He had no natural power base unlike the members of Lincoln's cabinet that he inherited.

Andrew Johnson's mother died on February 13, 1856, in Greenville, TN, while he was serving as governor of Tennessee. Her name was Mary McDonough Johnson, but she went by Polly. She married Turner Dougherty after Andrew's father died.

He was born near the North and South Carolina border,probably in the home of

one of two of his mother;s sisters, but nobody is sure which one. Therefore, his exact

place and state of birth is a matter of some dispute.

I don't quite understand what you're trying to know but Andrew Johnson was impeached for violating the tenure of office act of 1867. Impeachment is not whether or not you get convicted just whether or not you go to trial. He was impeached January 24, 1868.

Here's 13 of Andrew Johnson's quotes.

1. "Honest conviction is my courage; the Constitution is my guide."

2. "I am sworn to uphold the Constitution as Andy Johnson understands it and interprets it."

3. "I feel incompetent to perform duties... which have been so unexpectedly thrown upon me."

4. "I hold it the duty of the executive to insist upon frugality in the expenditure, and a sparing economy is itself a great national source."

5. "If I am a shot at, I want no man to be in the way of the bullet."

6. "If the rabble were lopped off at one end and the aristocrats at the other, all would be well with the country."

7. "It's a damn poor mind that can only think of one way to spell a word."

9. "Outside of the Constitution we have no legal authority more than private citizens, and within it we have only so much as that instrument gives us. The broad principle limits all our functions and applies to all subjects."

10. "Slavery exists. It is back in the South and white in the north."

11. " The goal to strive for is a poor government but a rich people."

12. "There are no good laws but such as repeal other laws."

13. "Who, then, will govern? The answer must be, man - for we have no angels in the shape of men, as yet, who are willing to take charge of our political affairs."

As President, Johnson "passed" no laws, although he did sign several into law after Congress forwarded them to him.
