      Vetoing the charter for the second bank of the United States, was probably his greatest action as president in my mind.
      I love to think from time to time how badly he stuck it to the banking cartel of the time with this action

      Not sure about the quote, but the intent is sound. Jackson was famously (infamously?) anti-central bank and he considered it his primary mission as president and openly stated the only reason he ran for a second term was to squash the chances of a central bank being established.

    Aaron Burr was Vice-president when he killed Hamilton in a duel. Andrew Jackson did kill a guy in a duel but long before he was president. Jackson was shot in the chest with a ball that remained there the rest of his life, which caused him a lot of pain, during the duel where he killed his opponent.
    Andrew Jackson was a super tough guy! He was probably the toughest individual ever to be president of the United States. He also held grudges and he was not a guy you wanted to cross.

    Here's an urban legend involving Jackson: Someone challenged him to a duel but Jackson didn't feel like it that day. So when it comes to duels, the person who is challenged makes the rules for the duel. Jackson made the rules absolutely insane so the other guy would withdraw. He wanted to fight in a pitch black basement with axes. Jackson showed up, his second, the other guys second, but not the opponent

    There was a failed assassination attempt on Jackson in 1835, but the would-be assassin's firearm and backup firearm apparently both misfired. Jackson proceeded to nearly beat the man to death with his cane until he was forcibly stopped from doing so by US Representatives who, along with Jackson, were attending a funeral service for another Rep who had passed away. One of the Reps who was noted to have restrained Jackson and stopped him from killing the assassin was Davy Crockett.

    • @sonsoftexas
      @sonsoftexas 2 роки тому +177

      While Jackson was President Sam Houston was an Indian agent. A congress man named Stanbury from Ohio accused him of corruption and Houston beat him with a cane. Houston and Crockett both fought under Jackson before he was President and were extremely loyal to them. Some historians believe Crockett and Houston ended up in Texas to acquire it for the USA at Jackson’s behest.
      There’s a great movie made by the Texas historical commission on Houston called Gone To Texas with Sam Elliot. It’s from a pulitzer prize winning biography of Houston and shows a lot of interesting information about the Houston Jackson relationship.
      Those were extremely interesting individuals.

    4:06 Joe says you could probably catch those bullets he thinks are slow, but the slowest ones were still about double the speed of an arrow from most high-end modern-day crossbows (crossbows being 300-470 feet per second with lightweight arrows and less with heavy arrows) those pistol bullets were still 800-1,300 feet per second and less than 700 feet per second is unheard of even for pocket pistols with little space for gunpowder and launching 0.32 inch bullets
    (.32 cal/.320 caliber).

      He has all the negativity about him because he was power hungry racist who was a complete genocidal maniac. The Loon tried to abolish the Electoral college so he could be the 1St King of the United States of America. He pushed expansion, which was brought to fruition by a Jacksonian democrat, President James Polk, who was just as racist and power hungry. Andrew Jackson is responsible for the Slaughter of a plethora of blacks and natives. He is responsible for the policies and strategies used for expansion, enslavement, and forced labor of natives and their land as well as the forced assimilation to European and American society. Himself and his party are the epitome of corruption. I mean Hitler himself stated he got the strategies for expansion, enslavement and forced labor from Andrew Jackson and the Jacksonian Democrats.

The idea and institution of a central bank isn't what the problem is, it's how it's run and Jackson opened the floodgates for how it's run today with zero to feigned government oversight. I mean what if we thought about cops and other institutions like the central bank, we would be "protected" by some weird privately run institution, just because a centralized institution has issues doesn't mean laissez faire capitalism works, that's what puts 8 year old's in coal mines, we already tried that it's as dumb as communism, or at least always leads workers to constantly ask for communism.

    He also singlehandedly postponed the civil war by nearly three decades by facing down South Carolina's politicians who were threatening succession in 1832, promising to raise and army, go there, defeat them, and hang the leaders if they did. As a badass, respected southerner, he could do that and make it stick. Lincoln could not in 1861, being viewed as a regional northerner in comparison.

    some historians explain Hamilton's strange behavior (like wearing his glasses and repeatedly stopping to inspect the pistol and shooting in a manner that was not how "throwing away your shot" was customarily done, i.e. the ground, etc.) that Hamilton may have been suicidal hoping to die in the duel, partly due to depression about his son's death and failed marriage.

      There's a popular theory that Hamilton screwed around with the trigger on his pistol in an effort to gain an advantage, but it ended up so light that he ended up firing in the air by mistake.

    Days after this dual, Jackson was called upon as a General to lead in battle. The men of Tennessee hearing the story of Jackson’s bravery, made every man desire to fight under Jackson’s command. These men went to war for free which gave Tennessee the name volunteer state. Jackson was in pain from the shot, it hurt to ride horseback so he walked 100’s of miles. Years later, there would be no New Orleans as a part of America thanks to Jackson and volunteer army. There are many Karen’s that do not know history that want every statue of him removed. His history with Indians made many lose any respect for him.

      Behavior and attitudes like that towards the natives are perfectly good reasons for a person to have lower opinions of the man. Americans don’t realize this but it’s entirely possible to fairly criticize one part of a person’s life even while recognizing success in another.

Sure he was a racist and owned slaves, sure he killed Native Americans, but so did George Washington and almost every other prominent White man at the time.

Of course that doesnt remove them from all blame, but literally everyone has done bad shit in their lifes, some are just worst than others.

    I vaguely remember hearing old reports of visiting leaders from other countries allegedly hearing the ghost of Andrew Jackson cussing in the White House.
    What's also interesting? While searching online for that story as I was writing this, I found another story about Andrew Jackson having a parrot that cussed. Here's the story:
    _Andrew Jackson once bought an African gray parrot named Poll for his wife. But when the first lady died, the parrot spent a lot of time with Old Hickory (Andrew Jackson), and apparently soaked up some of the president's choice phrases._
    _When Jackson died in 1845, thousands of people gathered to pay a final tribute_ - _along with one talking parrot that was apparently riled up by the crowds._
    _The Reverend William Menefee Norment, who presided over the funeral, described the scene. "Before the sermon and while the crowd was gathering, a wicked parrot that was a household pet got excited and commenced swearing so loud and long as to disturb the people," he said._
    _The bird "let loose perfect gusts of 'cuss words," so many that people were "horrified and awed at the bird's lack of reverence."_ In the end, the bird refused to shut up and "had to be carried from the house."_
    Here's another president cussing story from the same article:
    _On several occasions, Lincoln told a story about a Revolutionary War patriot Ethan Allen's first trip to England after the war:_
    _The British, trying to poke fun at the American, had put a picture of George Washington in the outhouse of the home where Allen was staying._
    _One day, Allen's hosts asked whether he had seen the portrait of the first president._
    _According to Lincoln, Allen replied:_ _"There is nothing to make an Englishman shit quicker than the sight of General George Washington."_
