What else do we know about Andrew Jackson?

He went after a Political Dynasty: The Adams

Created one of the muddiest Presidential campaigns of all time.

Basically stole Indian land then forced them off so he could create Memphis.

Hated Indians. While in office signed the Indian removal act.

Created the "spoils" systems: "To the victor goes the spoils!"












Hmmmmmm. Does this sound somewhat familiar.
