There are no known awards won by John Quincy Adams as far as written public records show. Unless winning presidency counts.

John Adams was chosen by the House because no candidate got a majority of the electoral vote. He finished second in both electoral and popular votes to Andrew Jackson. He appointed Henry Clay as his Secretary of State and it looked as if a deal had been struck since the states that Clay had won cast their votes in the House for Adams. Jackson supporters were furious and took steps to make sure that Jackson won the next election. One of their steps was to constantly attack Adams both in newspaper editorial and in pamphlets passed out on the streets.

John Quincy Adams appeared on a $1 coin minted in 2008. It was part of the Presidential dollars series that features all former presidents who are no longer living.

Well, his father, John Adams, was the 2nd president of the united states. So he wanted to be president also. He wasn't the smartest president that ran the country and he kinda started the depression.

Because those States supporting Adams and those supporting Henry Clay (who had now allied with Adams) formed a majority of Congressional State delegations. Had Clay allied with Andrew Jackson, their combined support would have been one state short of a majority, so that unless an additional state changed its vote, Inauguration Day 1825 would have arrived with no President chosen, and Vice President-elect John C Calhoun would have become President.

In the 1824 presidential election an individual needed to receive at least 131 electoral votes out of the 261 total electoral votes. Andrew Jackson received 99 electoral votes, John Quincy Adams received 84 electoral votes, William Crawford received 41 electoral votes, and Henry Clay received 37 electoral votes. The popular vote totals were Andrew Jackson 151,271 (42.9%), John Quincy Adams 113,122 (32.1%), Henry Clay 47,531 (13.5%), and William Crawford 40,856 (11.6%). Since no candidate received the required majority of 131 electoral votes, the president was elected by the U.S. House of Representatives in accordance with the Twelfth Amendment of the United States Constitution. John Quincy Adams won the election in the U.S. House of Representatives. If no candidate receives a majority of electoral votes, the Twelfth Amendment of the United States Constitution provides that the U.S. House of Representatives will select the president, with each state delegation casting one vote Adams was elected President on February 9, 1825, on the first ballot, with 13 states, followed by Jackson with 7, and Crawford with 4. Adams received votes from the New England states Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, and other states Illinois, Louisiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, New York, and Ohio. Jackson received votes from Alabama, Indiana, Mississippi, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Tennessee. Crawford received votes from Delaware, Georgia, North Carolina, and Virginia.

NO. John Q. Adams was never the Vice-president. He was Secretary of State under Monroe and served in the House of Representatives as well as holding diplomatic posts. His father, John Adams was the vice-president for 2 terms under Washington.

President John Quincy Adams received a Bachelor of Arts from Harvard, as well as a Master of Arts degree. He was interested in Greek philosophy, but what he studied is not known.

Groucho Marx portrayed the character Quincy Adams Wagstaff in the 1932 film, Horse Feathers. The movie was directed by Norman Z. McLeod.

He was elected by the House of Representatives, not the Electoral College.

John Quincy Adams is reported to have kept an alligator.

John Quincy Adams was unpopular because he wanted Congress to pay for new roads, canals, and favored projects to promote the arts and sciences. Most Americans objected to these because they didn't want to pay the money for it.

Well, where to begin...one of the most obvious is the fact that Andrew Jackson spent all four years telling anybody who would listen that John Quincy Adams cheated in the presidential election. So at the end of four years, JQA was probably glad to get out, because his approval ratings were on par with Bush's.

In the 1824 election, the House of Representative was required to appoint the president because no man got a majority of the electoral vote and four men got votes. Henry Clay came in fourth and so was eliminated. However Clay was able

swing the votes of the states that had voted for him to Adams, making him he winner over Jackson. When Adams appointed Clay as his Secretary of State, Jackson people claimed that a corrupt bargain had been made. In those days, the position of Secretary of State was considered to be a stepping stone to the presidency and so was a prize plum. Clay was from Kentucky , a western state, and so it would have been natural for him to favor Jackson if he had not made a bargain to help himself.

It's very unlikely that the bill is real. The only Federal $20 bills with that date were Demand Notes and they are considered to be extremely rare. There are oceans of replica $20 Confederate bills on the market; some are very difficult to distinguish from the real thing.

If you don't see the word COPY or REPLICA worked into the design anywhere you should have the bill authenticated by a currency expert but be prepared to find out it isn't genuine.

They are kinda the same but said different. one sounds like someone that can't talk and the other does sound right.
