Andrew Jackson
Hero Or Zero Of America
Letter To The Editor #1
We are the Cherokees and we are writing this letter from Oklahoma to you because we were here on this land before all you white men. Yet we are being treated like animals and being kicked out of our own land. We even went to court against Georgia and we won the case. But Andrew Jackson, the total jerk he is, said screw what the Supreme Court said, I'm gonna kick them out anyway. He didn't even think about what would happen to us. Instead he cared about the money involved in kicking us out. What we went through next was known by us and the white men as the Trail Of Tears. Half of us died on this 1,000 mile journey to Oklahoma.
Letter To The Editor #2
We are the Factory Workers of the North and we are writing this letter to you because we are becoming rich by the South. You see due to the Tax of 1832 the South has to buy everything from us and we are profiting greatly from it. They can't plant jackets, tractor, and all manufactured products so they have to buy all of it from us. This is amazing, we are so happy that Andrew Jackson has become president, if he wasn't we wouldn't be making all this money.
Expanding of Suffrage
Every other president before Jackson only allowed the rich white men to vote. But now that Andrew Jackson is here, he is allowing all white men to vote no matter how much money they have. It doesn't matter how much money you have come now and vote. So in the next election a lot more people realized that they could vote, about three times more voted in this election than the original 1824 election Adams vs. Jackson.
Killing The National Bank
Jackson killed the national bank. The reason he did this was because he thought it was only helping the rich. Also because people voted for him because he was about helping the middle and poor class of men. And also he killed the national bank because he had a personal vendetta against the person that was in charge of the bank. To his mind the national bank was not helping the middle and poor class.
Indian Removal Act
Jackson had purchased some land in Georgia to sell when the "savage" Indians were removed. However due to the court case Worcester vs. Georgia, he couldn't kick them out like his original plan. However he completely ignored the Supreme Courts order and removed all the Indians out of Georgia and sent them all to Oklahoma. The journey that these Indians took was known as the Trail Of Tears.
Political Cartoon
In this political cartoon you can see Andrew Jackson holding a paper that says something about the National Bank. Also you can see the pillars that are holding up the National Bank. Also there is a worker of the Bank portrayed as a demon.
