Was Andrew Jackson A Good Or Bad President?

There were many good things Jackson did for the country. The country's debt was the lowest it's been since the first fiscal year. However, despite the numerous good things he did for the country; they are minute. He was the first true Hitler. Jackson was a leading advocate of a policy known as Indian removal. He referred the this Indian removal as the "Final Solution". More than 45,000 American Indians were relocated to the West during Jackson's administration. This resulted in the deaths of over 4,000 Cherokees on the "Trail of Tears." He wanted a race obliterated, and we reward him with putting his face on the $20 bill. He was a white, powerful man with Christian beliefs (By the way, I'm white and Christian so this isn't biased in anyway.) those are the ONLY reasons we rewarded him for "cleansing" our nation. On the other hand, our nation was founded upon hypocrisy.

Bad, he had a short temper and had Lots of duels HE KILLED CHARLES DICKINSON (i think i misspelled his name)OOPS!

When he destroyed the bank of the united states he caused the u.s. People to go into a recession! He also invented that a state could vote a law null. He caused the native americans to walk the trail of tears. He was the first president to use the spoils system. He also native the democratic party grow. Gave the president more power. Lowered the federal debt a lot.

Jackson was a piece of garbage, he was responsible for the death of thousands of people.  This makes him a murderer.  Hes very similar to hitler in that he promoted genocide of the native american people.

Andrew Jackson was 7th president of the United States. He was a very important president Because he achieved many great things. But some people considered him bad and evil For how he treated the Indians and how he ruled.
Andrew Jackson was a general in the War of 1812, Jackson became a war hero when he
defeated the British at New Orleans.
In 1824 Jackson wins popular votes .But in the electoral college their was no exact winner. But a deal was made between two other candidates and Adam becomes president.
Andrew Jackson felt cheated  and since know one liked  Adams. He didn’t really accomplish anything so he wasn’t a very good president. In 1828 a relection occurred and this time Andrew Jackson was the victor. During Jackson’s precedence he accomplished many important things. Such as fixing the second national bank. Some people considered this good such as the common people and the poor. But the rich didn’t like the idea because the bank was favoring them. Another important thing was the Indian removal act. This was the removal all Indian tribes to areas west of the Mississippi. A reason why this is bad is because on the the Trail of Tears.(Indians migration to the west). Indians where treated like garbage they where force to travel gruesome miles in the freezing cold
And they had to follow what ever the soilders said. Many Indians died on the trail of tears. Another reason is that he ruled some what like a king. If their was some law that wasn’t exactly what he wanted he vetoed it. He also was becoming to powerful and tried to do anything he wanted.

Wow he was cool

I think he was a horrible president because of him forcing all the eastern Indian expesily  making the Chairuceat Indians go and live west and Taken their land !!!!!!!!!! He was also a horrible man before he was president!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope you go with what I said and I hope you like what I said O and I hope you get a "A" well bye

Good

I don't know much about this either and I'm working on a similar assignment on Andrew Jackson, so I feel your pain. I'll try to help. Andrew Jackson was a terrible president in my opinion, but whatever. He was very opposed to the National Bank. It was his obsession to destroy it since he saw it as a corrupt institution that held too much power, and threatened America's stability. He was certainly a war monger. He was ALWAYS looking for a fight and he also had thousands of Native Americans forced off their lands in the trail of tears so that whites could expand westward.

Well andrew jackson is a very controversial president.  There are always two sides of his actions.  First the spoils system, the removal of the indians and the tearing down of the National Bank.
It was bad that he got his supporters on the high posts as advisors because they were not professionals, but at the same time they were representing the common man.
The removal of the indians showed how cruel he was while it gained America new lands.
The attack on the national bank made the money trickle down to lower class, while the economy suffered badly making no place for new businesses.

I will give you some good and bad written by me and my class... First is bad and it is the trail of tears. The trail of tears was a cold trail on the way west. And 1 4th of people died. The Cherokee had to move west to the Indian territory because General Winfield Scott forced them out of there homes with nothing but there clothes on there back. In 1830 the Congress of the United States passed the "Indian Removal Act." Although many Americans were against the act, most notably Tennessee Congressman Davy Crockett, it passed anyway. President Jackson quickly signed the bill into law. The Cherokees attempted to fight removal legally by challenging the removal laws in the Supreme Court and by establishing an independent Cherokee Nation. At first the court seemed to rule against the Indians. In Cherokee Nation v. Georgia, the Court refused to hear a case extending Georgia's laws on the Cherokee because they did not represent a sovereign nation. In 1832, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Cherokee on the same issue in Worcester v. Georgia. In this case Chief Justice John Marshall ruled that the Cherokee Nation was sovereign, making the removal laws invalid. The Cherokee would have to agree to removal in a treaty. The treaty then would have to be ratified by the Senate.
To compensate the Cherokee for their loss without retaining some land and living a normal life among the settlers, Ross came up with the figure of 20 million dollars, or about 25% of the value of the land if sold separately to each settler. For this amount 17,000 men, women and children would leave voluntarily and relocate to the Indian Territory, now the state of Oklahoma. This comes to a payment of just under $1200 per person. This is roughly $4.34 per acre (the going rate for similar, nearby land sold in the state of Georgia in 1835 was between $18.00 an acre and $25.00 an acre. I think that the trail of tears was a bad thing to happen and the Cherokee should have not got kick out.
       Another bad one is the spoils system
The Spoil System was the practice of winning candidates, then giving the government jobs to political backers and supporters. This is wrong to put these people ahead of more hard working, smarter, and more experienced people. Doing this is favoritism, just because they helped them with their election doesn't mean they should be rewarded with jobs that they might not be equipped for.

In the political system of the United States, a spoil system, also known as a patronage system is an informal practice where a political group, after winning an election, gives government jobs to its voters and backers as a reward for winning the victory, and as a bribe or incentive to keep working for the party, as opposed to a system of awarding offices on the basis of some measure of merit independent of political activity. The term was derived from the phrase "'to the victor belong the spoils..." by New York Senator William L. Marcy. Similar spoils systems are common in other nations.

One of Jackson's many other terrible choices was the spoil system. This was when he replaced all government workers with people who were loyal to the office holder's political party. This was a terrible choice because many qualified, hard working, deserving, innocent workers will lose their jobs to less qualified and not as experienced people. This is not fair at all and it makes Jackson seem like a very irresponsible, immature president. This is unfair because he is just ignoring the other half of the country that was simply just voicing their opinion. Also the new workers that Jackson picked were defiantly not as experienced, so the quality of the goods and products are lower. IT IS NOT FAIR!!
                                                
                                              A good thing is his leader ship




One reason Jackson was a good leader because of his war experience. At age thirteen he joined the militia to fight in the Revolutionary War. He was very brave and never backed down he always stood up for what he believed in even at such a young age. After the war of 1812 he was appointed general in the army. In the battle of New Orleans in 1815, he soundly defeated the British even though they were so greatly outnumbered. After this defeat he became a national war hero. He knew how to run a proper army so people trusted him to know how to run a proper country. Jackson's humble background, and his reputation as a war hero, helped make him president. People loved that he supported the common man instead of just the wealthy. I defiantly agree with that. They felt that he was one of them. I think that's the kind of person I would want running my country. Many saw his rise above hardship as a real American success story. This brought in many votes.

The fact that Andrew built a successful legal practice proved that he had great leadership skills. You wouldn't be able to do that with out those skills. He was very smart and he knew how to handle things. He also could handle land very well. He purchased a plantation near Nashville and ran successfully for Congress.

Andrew was a great person and president for our country to be lucky enough to have. He was a firm person who got things done. The fact that he was re-elected proved that people knew he was a good leader. They wanted him to continue making important decisions for our country.

Definitely a good president because he is related to me thank you love the guest

I think he was a very good president i know he wasn't born here and ext. But he was a very brave boy and he saved his home, he loved his family and missed them very much
well this is what i think so byye!!
