Andrew Jackson, seventh President of the United States
Andrew Jackson, born March 15, 1767, was an American politician who served as the seventh President of the United States of America from 1829 to 1837.
As a war hero and “savior of his country”, he was one of the few Americans who dominated the first half of the 19th century. As president, he redefined and strengthened the executive branch, championing the concept of a united nation against growing threats of disunity. By all accounts, he was one of the strongest presidents, and also one of the most controversial. He gave his name to the Jacksonian Democracy movement and the Jackson Age.
Biography
Andrew Jackson was born on March 15, 1767, in the Waxhaw area of South Carolina, to a humble Irish immigrant family. Because his father died a few weeks before his birth, he was raised by his older brother Hugh, who taught him to read and write. He later received a modest education and taught school for some time.
First military experience
During the American Revolutionary War, when the British invaded the Carolinas in 1780, thirteen-year-old Jackson joined a group of volunteers and was captured and imprisoned after the Battle of Hanging Rock. When the conflict ended, the young patriot was released and returned home, where he found with bitterness that his mother and two of his brothers had died during the war. Settling in Salisbury in 1784, he devoted himself to the study of law. Great perseverance was rewarded in 1787 when he became a lawyer. By October 1788, he was appointed district attorney in Mero County (now Middle Tennessee) and moved to Nashville, where he lived in the home of Rachel Stockley Donelson, the widow of the city’s founder, John Donelson.
Military and political career
In 1791, at the age of 24, Jackson became a prosecutor in Nashville, Tennessee, where he married Rachel Jackson, previously married to Captain Lewis Robards, whom she had divorced a year earlier.
Since the divorce proceedings were not yet final, it turned out that the two were married to the same woman, technically involved in bigamy, and the wedding was subsequently cancelled. This story was brought up again during the 1828 presidential election to discredit Jackson. Finally, after finalizing their divorce (the first time in Tennessee history), Andrew and Rachel remarried in 1794 year. Since there were no children from the marriage, the couple adopted two from an orphanage. Andrew and Rachel were also legal guardians of six other boys and two girls.
On June 1, 1796, during the presidency of George Washington, Tennessee joined the Union as the 16th autonomous state. Immediately after the creation of the state, Jackson, through his work, was elected to the local House of Representatives and later elected a judge on the Supreme Court in Tennessee in 1797. Because of his impetuous and often quarrelsome nature, the American politician did not feel comfortable in legislative assemblies and was fed up with the sedentary life of a judge, so in 1804 he decided to retire and become commander of the local police.
In 1812, as the Anglo-American War broke out, Secretary of War James Monroe appointed Jackson commander-in-chief of the southern front, where conflict broke out with the Creek Native Americans, allies of the British. The commander of the militia led his men against the natives in a two-year campaign (1813-1814), at the end of which the Indians had to give up a vast territory of more than 9 million hectares.
After the war ended, Jackson launched a military campaign on behalf of the government of Washington against the Seminole Indians, a tribe based in Florida and later a Spanish possession, guilty of helping the Creek during the conflict with the Americans. During the war, an American general was reported to have been hasty and in bad faith captured a military fort in 1818, located in Spain, which is considered the base of the rebels. This incident sparked protests in Madrid and embarrassed the US government almost to the point of causing a serious diplomatic incident between the two countries, but it ended in 1819.
year with the transfer of Florida to the United States in exchange for the abandonment of any American claims to Spanish possessions in Mexico.
Presidential elections and reforms
In 1822, the state legislature nominated him for President of the United States, which was supported by other states, and in 1823 elected him to the US Senate (he resigned in 1825). Jackson consistently denied that he was seeking the presidency, but declared it his duty to serve if elected. In the 1824 presidential campaign, Jackson won both popular and electoral majorities over William Crawford, John Quincy Adams, Henry Clay, and John C. Calhoun. When the House of Representatives handed over the presidency to Adams and Adams appointed Clay as Secretary of State, Jackson called the deal a “corrupt deal” that violated the will of the voters. On this accusation, Jackson’s advisers launched the 1828 presidential campaign.
The presidential campaign that followed was one of the dirtiest in the country.
Pamphlets and partisan newspapers explored the public and private lives of Jackson and Adams, especially Jackson. The parade of “careless acts” seemed endless, but the hints of moral depravity, as evidenced by Jackson’s marriages, proved most painful. On December 22, 1828, Rachel Jackson died, and her husband claimed that her death was hastened by a smear campaign.
However, in the November 1828 presidential election, Jackson, at age 61, returned to the field with a new political entity, the Democratic Party, which this time succeeded in defeating the outgoing president, thanks to an alliance of small farmers. The West and the agrarians of the north were disappointed with Adams’s economic policy.
On March 4, 1829, he became the first president who did not come from an “aristocratic” family and did not study at a prestigious school: he was a frontier man, exalted by the pioneers of the West and seen with little sympathy by the intellectuals of the North and South of the country.
The same John Quincy Adams, his predecessor, did not respect him very much, considering him illiterate. People had the feeling that people came to him with him, and this was proved when, at the inauguration ceremony, he opened the White House to thousands of pioneers, which caused real chaos in the presidential residence. He was a very determined man, absolutely determined to get what he wanted and was an ardent supporter of full democracy.
With the coming to power of Jackson, an operation was actually launched to democratize the political structures of the United States, which had previously been dominated by limited southern land and northern financial oligarchies: restrictions on voting were gradually lifted and secret ballots were introduced. Many public offices, state and local, became elective, the election of presidential voters was entrusted to popular vote, while in the party context, the appointment of party leaders was removed from limited groups of leaders and entrusted to democratically elected bodies.
Another period of novelty occurred in the technological and industrial realm: in fact, during his mandate, the first trade union associations arose and the first North American railroad was established. The South Carolina Railroad, opened January 15, 1831.
The main points of his presidency were three: the expropriation of Cherokee lands, the enforcement of South Carolina, and the war against the Second Coast. The Cherokee were an Indian population that settled in Georgia and even gave themselves a constitution along the lines of the American one. When gold was discovered in the area, the state of Georgia was quick to expropriate the land. Jackson, was a supporter of the autonomy of the individual states of the Union and legalized the expropriation of land and the deportation of Indians (the so-called “Way of Tears”) by signing the Act on May 28, 1830 to remove Indians from their lands. Historian Robert W. Remini wrote “One of the worst crimes in U.S. history.”
He also managed to gain the upper hand over Congress by demanding veto power over legislation for his office.
For this, he was accused of authoritarianism, since such power was established by the US Constitution. His opponents began (slowly) to coalesce into the Whig party (a name that not surprisingly echoes the British struggle against the absolutism of Charles I).
In November 1832, Jackson was re-elected to a second term by defeating his rival Henry Clay, candidate of the National Republican Party: during this period, on June 15, 1836, Arkansas became part of the Union. At the end of his reign, Michigan was annexed as a state (January 26, 1837). In addition, towards the end of his administration, a severe financial crisis erupted, caused by his harsh protectionist economic policies, bequeathed to his successor Martin Van Buren.
Failed attack, final years and death
Andrew Jackson was also the first American president to be attacked: on January 30, 1835, while on the East Portico to attend the funeral of South Carolina MP Warren R. Davis, he was the victim of a double attack on his life by the hand of Richard Lawrence, an unemployed English artist.
