The Thoughts Behind Old Hickory Andrew Jackson is possibly one of our most controversial presidents. While he did many things to help move forth the political process and helped make important decisions regarding nullification, he also further disenfranchised Native Americans as well as he was responsible for destruction of the National Bank. In order to understand why he did some of these things, one must look back at his past and the things he did. One of the first things Jackson did when he took office was allowed the people to enter the White House after his inauguration.

Currently, the U.S. is the leader in the fed-cattle industry and was the prime producer of quality, grain-fed beef cattle in the World in 2012.

Richard King’s ranch continues to be the icon of modern day American ranching.
I have a lot of experience with horses, but my favorite thing is that feeling you get when you whip around a barrel as fast as you can… almost as if you’re flying. You really feel that when you barrel race. Barrel racing has not always been around. Basically, you run as fast as you can on horseback around three barrels in a clover leaf pattern and try to finish with the fastest time. My favorite part of barrel racing is the history of how it grew and became so popular, and just arrangement of the rules and how every little detail is planned out.

Nine Horses Reader’s Response Nine horses, a collection of symbolic poems, by Billy Collins shows off a simple writing style that delivers impactful messages about today’s world. “Aimless Love”, one of the poems, made me see the tiny things in life that I should stop and appreciate. One of the most important lines “I fell for a seamstress still at her machine in the tailor’s window, and later for a bowl of broth,” The author compares the love for a human to love for an object, and this shows how little value was given to human relationships by the author. This is Ironic, seeing as the amount of thought and value given to a human relationship by most people, and how the author compared it to an object. This made me wonder if we, as humans,
“Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere , On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-five; Hardly a man is now alive Who remembers that famous day and year.” By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

In North America, wild horses are often labeled as non-native, or exotic species by most federal or state agencies, such as the National Park Service, etc. Despite this, horses were originally indigenous to North America millions of years ago, however, some found their way to what is now Europe and Asia before they died out and became extinct around 2 million years ago. It wasn’t until 1493 when the Horse was finally re introduced. On Columbus’ second voyage to the Americas, Spanish horses were brought back to North America, first in the Virgin Islands, then in 1519, they were reintroduced to North America, in modern‐day Mexico. From there they then radiated throughout the American Great Plains.
What some people do not understand that these horses are loved so much. It doesn’t matter whether it is a barrel horse of rope horse. After they work, we pet them, give them treats, let them relax, and sometimes they get a massage or ice on their legs. Source A, “The Sport - the Life- of Rodeo” says, “Just like in basketball, there is a team. My team consists of my horses, my parents and everyone who helps me keep my horses working, including my vet ad my farrier, who shoes the horses,” (Pallesen).
They actually, bid on quite a bit of money. Depending on whether they know that the horse is capable of winning they will bid higher amounts. They pay hundreds of dollars and attempt to win money. Most jockeys travel and race for a living some only do if as a side job. California Chrome is the fastest American Race horse.
So, instead of wasting the money the horse has earned the cheapest way is to send them off to wherever they want. Which, is not a nice home, it is a death home. Living as an animal in the racing industry is difficult exhausting. From endless suffering and injuries, being injected and digesting illegal pills, and if you fail you are thrown out of the industry and killed for multiple usages. The life of a racehorse is not sunshine and rainbows.
Horse racing may be considered one of America’s past times, but it might be time to make it a thing of the
