They are glorified for their charisma and ability to lead, but even these brilliant men make economic, political, and social blunders. Andrew Jackson, who was in office from 1829-1837, was a president of many firsts as he was the first frontier president, first to have a “kitchen cabinet”, and first to use a pocket veto. Jackson was later succeeded by his vice president, Martin Van Buren. Van Buren, who was in office from 1837-1841, was known for his shrewd political skills. Both these men laid down the foundations for a stronger, more centralized national government with methods that garnered mixed responses.…

    The creation of an independent-minded Andrew Jackson started early in his life due to the death of his family during the Revolutionary War. He lived on the streets and developed ways to survive and not care what other people thought of his decision making. However, was like everyone else during this time, trying to make a name for himself. Like all frontiersman, there was constant fear of Indian attacks. As Robert V. Remini writes in his book The Life of Andrew Jackson, “Jackson was called upon to protect the community from Indian attack. A twenty-man team pursued the Indians to their camp…Most of the ‘savages’ escapes…This was Jackson’s first formal expedition against the tribes in the Nashville District and he held the rank of private.”…

    Andrew Jackson (despite allegations to the contrary by South Carolina and Tennessee) was born in North Carolina and grew up a son of the frontier. The hero of the Battle of New Orleans and a proven hothead (he blatantly disobeyed orders and hanged a few of the enemy in the Seminole War), Jackson was also not what one would call an intellectual. It was the emotionalizing of campaign issues that got him elected in 1828 over a superior statesman, President John Q. Adams. Through an over-emotionalized revivalist campaign style, Jackson's camp brought the common man out of the backwoods and into the voting booth. (Records show that voter participation rose dramatically through the Jackson era). By exploiting the class difference between the urban Eastern industrialists and the South and Western agrarian, Jackson's aides turned "Old Hickory" into a symbol for the fight against the upper class and intellectualism. From this point on, it mattered little what Jackson did as President, as long as it was perceived as the will of the common man.…

    Andrew Jackson was a natural born leader. He started showing signs of leadership even as a young fellow. It’s as simple as that. He grew up to be an intimidating gentleman with a tall stature, piercing blue eyes, and sharp, angular facial features, which made it seem as if he could see inside your soul and convince you to do anything he wanted you to do. It is no doubt that today we look at Andrew Jackson as one of the most strategic and indispensable generals to the American military during his time, but throughout his life he became a man of controversy. If he disagreed with orders from his…

    After reading your post of Andrew Jackson, I was intrigued and wanted to learn more about his life. So after reading American Stories and other online sources, I learned some additional facts about his life, including the fact that at age 13, Jackson was captured and sent to prison. Both Andrew Jackson and his older brother Robert were imprisoned together. While in captivity, a British Officer slashed his head for refusing to shine his boots. As well as, both brothers contracted small pox before their mother Elizabeth arranged for their release in a prisoner exchange. Sadly, Robert died on the journey home. To make matters worse for Jackson, Elizabeth later died from cholera while attending to sick American Prisoners.…

    Andrew Jackson was a man of deep moral principles and unfailing loyalty to his friends. When his wife Rachel, who had been much maligned during her marriage to Jackson, died before his inauguration, Jackson transferred his emotional support to his friend John Eaton and his wife Margaret Timberlake Eaton when her reputation was manipulated by the scandal of her marriage to Eaton before the required mourning period for her first husband had ended. The rules of mourning at that time required the widow to wear black for at least 2 years, not leave the house except for church, attend no social events. The widow wasn't even supposed to do any sewing because if she did she was not showing the proper amount of regard at loosing her spouse.…

    President Andrew Jackson was one of the better embodiments of the “American Dream.” His humble beginnings made him a common man, while his vast intellect and determination made him successful. Throughout his presidency, Andrew Jackson was praised for acting on the behalf of the ordinary Americans. Yet, his personal motivations and interests that influenced his actions were often contradictory. Jackson’s first term was distinguished by private opinions altering his executive decisions as president. His opposition to the recharter of the Bank of the United States was influenced from his great loss of wealth in the Panic of 1795, Wall Street’s first financial crisis, when stocks’ value depreciated rapidly.…

    Honorable and infamous, courageous and alarmed, trustworthy and treasonous – one could claim that President Andrew Jackson fills the bill of each category. President Jackson’s legacy is one that is continuously being rewritten and reformed. Andrew Jackson, the man who set forth plans that would normally send men wallowing in fear, became a war hero during the War of 1812, destroyed the Second Bank of the United States, eliminated the national debt, and conquered and triumphed over the Supreme Court. In a sense a man larger than life, Jackson paved the way for the many liberties that we take for granted today. From nullification to Indian Removal, Andrew Jackson is a man who is cautiously studied. From his early childhood years to the deathbed,…
