This book tells the stories of two very different men in particular, whose stories crossed paths many times and eventually led to the current “real estate” of the United States particularly the southern portion. These two men were President Andrew Jackson, the seventh president of the United States, and Cherokee Chief John Ross. Their relationship took many turns especially as both gained power and had very different views about how land should be distributed and who would populate it. Andrew Jackson, at the time when this all started was just a government employee and a citizen, yet his strong opinions were clear and is given full credit for creating the region we call the Deep South. He always went out of his way to go through loopholes to
The Story of Charles Jackson Charles Jackson was part of one of the only black families in the small town of Stillwater, Oklahoma. Charles was a big fan of baseball as a kid. He grew up watching Babe Ruth and the 1936 Yankees win back to back to back to back World Series. His father used to bring him to the local baseball stadium where they would watch the Oklahoma City Badgers. There was always some sort of problem between his father and the whites, but he always told Charles that it was nothing and that he should never listen to what they say.
Generals Miki and Washizu are Samurai commanders under a local lord, Lord Tsuzuki, who reigns in the castle of the Spider's Web Forest. After defeating the lord's enemies in battle, they return to Tsuzuki's castle. On their way through the thick forest surrounding the castle, they meet a spirit, who foretells their future. The spirit tells them that today Washizu will be named Lord of the Northern Garrison and Miki will now be commander of the first fortress. She then foretells that Washizu will eventually become Lord of Spiderweb Castle, and finally she tells Miki that his son will also become lord of the castle.
The conceptual appeal of the Jeffersonian heritage is important in understanding the Jacksonians. Jackson and his followers “Jacksonians” were suspicious of the new industrial society developing around them and wanted instead for the restoration of the agrarian, republican virtues of earlier times. In destroying the bank of the United States, minimizing federal economic activities, and highlighting state's rights, they made efforts to rebuild a simpler, more decentralized world. Oddly enough, their actions added to the expansion of unregulated capitalism.
One of Jackson’s more memorable proposals was the
(Whaples 550). Since Jackson implemented the Specice Circular he inadvertently caused the Panic of 1837. This Panic led to the common man not being able to purchase land and being unemployed because the value of the specie went up and the demand was high. There wasn’t enough specie to go around for everyone, causing the ultimate demise of the ¨fellow citizen¨ (Jackson
In class, we discussed Andrew Jackson as a former President of the United States. The online journal article, “On Tour with President Andrew Jackson”, by Fletcher M. Green explains the issues Jackson had to deal with. According to Fletcher M. Green, “Emerging as the leader of the new Democratic party, Andrew Jackson was elected President in 1828 and soon became the symbol of American Democracy” (211). The article explains that Jackson's Presidency was checked by four noteworthy issues: The Second Bank of the United States, the Tariff of 1828, the Nullification Crisis, and Indian Removal. Jackson marked more than ninety treaties with Indian tribes and moved all of them west of the Mississippi.
Part of the problem was Jackson didn’t think about
Andrew Jackson, acting as both a government employee and a private citizen, was more responsible than any other single person for creating the region we call the Deep South. He did the most to establish the land for the states of Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida. As president, his first significant initiative was a proposal to remove all Indians from the area. But, long before, while serving as a major general, he wrote, “The object of the government is to bring into market this land and have it populated.” Native Americans were removed by armies, acts, treaties and laws.
He mapped out an area of the west that he was willing to give them as long as they moved out of Georgia. Jackson, being the war hero that he was, could have easily decided to slaughter the Indians to eliminate the issue. Instead, he gave them a coveted opportunity to move to land set up especially for them to live on. The Indians were a people who lived off the land for years. They were accustomed to and appreciated the struggles that emerge from that type of culture.
The English had ended up burning 5 or 6 villages and destroying many cornfields. The mens next mission was to find the murderers of John Stone. Endicott’s and Gardiner’s men sailed out to where the Pequot tribe was. The English ended up running into the Pequot and they attempted to negotiate with them. The negotiating didn’t work out and the English ended up burning the village and killing a Pequot.
Andrew Jackson contributed many conspicuous matters to the United States throughout his presidential term. Many debates remain active concerning the intention of the seventh president of our nation. When some retrospect the essence of Jackson, they would confirm that he is accurately known for representing the rights of the common man, and for being at the forefront of our modern democratic party. On the contrary, others will condemn this once so ordinary, “common” man for possessing an insatiable crave of power that was occupied within this insidious prime minister. Jackson revealed his underlying intentions through his colossal aggregate of slaves, serving as the basis of the Trail of Tears, and his overabuse of the Spoils System.
Nature’s delicate balance of wind, rain, and grass had been disturbed by human settlement. Fifty years earlier, a strong protective carpet of grass had covered the Great Plains. The grass held moisture in the soil and kept the soil from blowing away (Holley).” Before the Great Plains were settled, its geography was covered in lush grasses that made it perfect for farming and raising livestock. As the population grew and more and more people settled there, the grass was removed so that they could farm the land.
