#andrewjackson #presidents #americanhistory
Known for his fiery personality and for being the first president to represent the “common man,” he single handedly changed American politics forever. For better or for worse. Nah, actually I’d say mostly for better. Sometimes we need outsiders in there to shake things up and stick it to the elites, and Jackson indeed was a champion for the underdog. Well, the white underdogs. Hey, it was still progress. And folks forget that Jackson, even though he WAS one of the elites by the time he ran for President, truly was a rags to riches story. He was born in poverty and rose up, the first President to represent the somewhat so-called American Dream. Jackson never forgot his humble upbringing, and his populist message and commanding leadership style helped shape the American democratic ideals that many of us take for granted today. That all said, critics called him a demagogue who ignored the law when it was convenient.
Sure, he was terrifying. He was racist….and a little crazy. But I think the United States ultimately ended up on a better path because of him.

Seems like it comes from a particular style of Southern masculinity: both guys simply showing up to the duel proves their masculinity to the other, and since that form of masculinity is held in such high regard they both score points with each other. This is why duels often ended with both participants shooting their guns into the dirt; simply showing up was a sufficient act of bravery, and unless the other was really pissed off you could consider the debt of honor satisfied. It's not a very healthy system overall but it has its own internal logic.

@@schultz6622 oh I'm making no excuses for what happened. The Indian Removal Act was one of perhaps the most awful sounding and correctly named acts of Congress I can remember. At least on paper it bore some semblance of fairness; we'll take your land and give you land elsewhere and you're accepting. The land elsewhere which was later taken of course. Though did stop the fighting for now. Native Americans as you probably already know largely believed that chunks of the Earth could not be owned, it was sort of like we see rainwater and air. Though I'm sure they recognized things like turf. The newcomers were territorial to the extreme.

There is a Native American quote: "When your bones return to the Earth, and your blood returns to the sea, perhaps then you will remember that this land does not belong to you. It is you who belong to the land." I don't doubt it is genuinely indigenous, though I'm not surprised its a bit vague where it came from. Todays indigneous of course have "modern" views of property as its impossible for both concepts to exist together. There are also claims that the U.S. borrowed a number of things from the Iroquois Confederacy in writing the Constitution, which are probably accurate. Not taking the points any further to make any kind of argument, just throwing them out there as interesting

For as wild as Jackson was, there’s all those little things about him which astound me. So he was a slave owner, yet was the first military general to offer equal pay to all races. Hated native Americans, but he loved adoption and full blown adopted 3 of them. Settled tons of fights with the threat of death, yet became friends with people who survived his duels. All I can think after you explained all that was he was a walking irony. P.S. great job. Should’ve mentioned his swearing bird though lol

Dear Mr. Beat, I’m a fan of your RU-vid channel and I like your videos. I’m not a US citizen and didn’t take any US history and geography classes before. Your channel is the best resource of mine to explore such huge amount of knowledge and really get to know the history, culture, and politics of this country. Recently I noticed that you have post several long and detailed videos to introduce the presidents of United States, just like this one, I’m wondering if you have plan to introduce the Lyndon B. Johnson, one of the most controversial president of US. There are lots of discussions around him in Internet, most of which are about the Vietnam War, and the Civil Rights. However, as an international student from China, I might have different perspective of LBJ. As you know, China has maybe the biggest government in the world and it really has rather high executive efficiency (of course lots of problems this big government produced). Similarly, LBJ administration, also made US both executive branch and legislative branch really high efficiency. While other Americans still focus on the Vietnam War he expanded, and the Civil Rights he contributed, I think the so many Acts passed during his administration are equally important. It’s even more important to people nowadays since it fundamentally changed people way of life in US. Those are Medicare, Medicaid, Consumer Product Safety, Immigration, Poverty Supporting, Education, etc. Any one of these milestone Acts can be seen as important political legacy of any US presidents, and LBJ just passed tens or twenties of them. Do you consider to make a video about this president, not only focus on his influence on Vietnam War and Civil right, but also discuss his legacy, his Acts, and how he deeply changes today’s US society? Thanks! Wish you have a great holiday season! All the best, Jianr

@@diggernash1 There is a lot of work on a farm beside picking cotton. In fact it is only in the 1960 census that more horsepower was used on the farm was produced by tractors then actual horses. Even today, it is more economical to use horses on farms of less then 50 acres (Yes most full time farmers, farm much larger farms then farms with 50 acres thus tractors are much more profitable to use by such farmers). It is only since the 1950s that herbicide have replaced manual hoeing to eliminate weeds on most farms. This move to larger farms relying on tractors, insecticides and herbicides, while started in the late 1800s, it did not become the dominate method of farming till the 1950s and till then the more modern version of slavery, share cropping, was the main type of farming in the Cotton belt. Please note the three point hitch was not invented till 1939 and did not come into common use till the 1950s. Without the three point hitch, plowing between the rows of crop to get rid of weeds had still to be done by horses with a man on plow being pulled by the horse till the 1950s. Farming is more then planting a crop in the spring and harvesting it in the fall, between those time periods work had to be done including removing weeds, making sure wild animals do not harm the crop (i.e. maintaining fences, barns and other structures) and feeding and taking care of the animals used on the farm (unlike tractors, animals have to be feed every day and kept clean, tractors only had to be "feed" gasoline or diesel only when they are used). Slaves could also be "hired out" to do other work near the plantation, such as digging water drainage ditches, timbering trees for use as lumber and fuel and working on the roads so wagons could haul crops on such roads. Many sharecroppers did such work, involuntarily, while into the 1960s (in the 1926 Mississippi floods, Boy Scouts were given rifles to make sure all the African Americans sharecropper forced to work on the levees holding back the flood waters stayed on those levees rather then permit them to go home to save they own homes). We live in a very mechanical age, but that move to more mechanical use on the farm started later then in the urban areas, and the change was even slower in the Cotton Belt of the American South thus slavery would have been profitable till at least the 1950s and maybe into the 1960s (Slavery's close cousin, Sharecropping, survived till the 1960s mostly for those same reasons).

@paulmentzer7658 Have you plowed with a mule? I have, beginning at 8 years old. My granddad believed it was a skill to keep alive. I'm glad I had the opportunity to make a garden with him for 5 years. You can work the land with them, but after doing both, I would always choose the tractor. Much of my family were sharecroppers until WWI. Some of them were sharecroppers because of the after effects of the Civil War. Half or more of my ancestors lived worse than sharecroppers far up in Appalachia. Many of them had no power through the Civil rights movement. They grew subsistence amounts of food, logged, and made/moved moonshine. Is it your position that slavery would have existed until the 1960s without the Civil War? I say it would have ended by 1900 with the number of slaves systematically reduced between 1880 and 1900.

You touched on something important that a lot of people miss when discussing history. Jackson and his people failed to recognize societal evils like slavery, but we probably never would've gotten moral revolutions like abolitionism, women's suffrage, and so on if his supporters hadn't transformed the U.S. into a far more liberal democracy than it was with those property requirements. A more balanced perspective on a lot of historical figures can be a good thing.
@josephb.1425
@josephb.1425 10 месяцев назад
On the other hand, abolitionists had existed in the Americas since slavery's establishment here and Britain abolished slavery in 1807. We absolutely can and should criticize historical figures for what they did in a time when such things were already being criticized for being self-evidently evil at the time. And there absolutely was opposition to the Trail of Tears in the US when Jackson pursued it, as demonstrated by the Supreme Court deeming what was happening illegal and Jackson ignoring them anyway. We can't let historical figures hide behind the argument that "it was a different time" when the historical record already shows that society did not fully agree on these issues.

Teddy is second. Both had so much crap thrown at them and were able to overcome it all. It takes a strong will to do that. He was complicated, no doubt. But he was honorable and cared for his family and friends and fought for the common man that the elites ignored. If I could meet anyone, dead or alive, it would be Jackson.

Not one person could see that and think, "Hmm. These indians are peaceful let's destroy their lives." Even still, he adopted an Indian orphan named Lyncoya and raised him as his own son.

They would have given him nothing, certainly not anything to link him to them, and told him that if he succeeded, the government of Cuba could never acknowledge him in any way. Especially if you read the Davison book, you'll understand why this would have only made the idea more appealing to Oswald.

People make the mistake of making morality black and white (pun not intended), people are either good or bad. But people who are truly virtuous or evil are very rare, truth is that most of us are a mix of both. That combined with the fact that slavery was just something that Jackson and people of his time were brought up to believe was acceptable. The same way that a lot of people know that vegans exist but still find meat eating acceptable or just don't care one way or another. And then people will come at with the whole "well he still should have known better" and all you can say to that is that hindsight is perfect.
@Jack_Stafford

Easily, because it was legal and if you are raised in a society where things like this are legal, just like how women and children are treated in currently in Saudi Arabia, one of the richest countries on the planet, you don't think it's wrong. You don't see the pain, you see them as cattle that need your protection and are bought and sold like anything else. Do you think a rancher looks into the eyes of cows or pigs and worry about the pain they may endure during transportation or execution so that we can have hamburger and bacon? Yes that's how they thought of those people. They were raised that way, they believe that in most cases, and obviously it is wrong by today's standards but you cannot judge people in history by current-day principles. Otherwise, practically every major or minor figure in history would be a criminal using today's standards. You simply cannot take modern-day ideals and paste them over what was normal and very acceptable at the time (and for the vast majority of human history) and judge him, it simply isn't right to do that. Just like now we understand slavery is wrong, and so wouldn't take their opinions and slap them on us, we can't take modern-day thoughts and apply them to history. And furthermore, opinions continue to change over time so current-day opinions are just that, opinions of today... down the road people may decide that eating meat of any kind is wrong or owning animals as pets is wrong or disciplining children is wrong or anything else that now we think of as "just part of everyday life" is wrong, so think of that next time you try to harshly judge someone that far back in history according to the standards of this week. Moral standards change very frequently do not deceive yourself. It wasn't that many years ago that it was considered "normal and legal" to abort children all the way up until birth, now we obviously know that is wrong, laws and opinions have changed, and most people today have trouble understanding people thinking otherwise decades ago that it was no problem, just like people during those times had no issues with slavery, but that is how human moral evolution works. We get better over time, hopefully.

Today as we're dealing with massive interest payments, 100%+ debt to GDP, inflation, and bloated, inaccessible asset classes, it's about time we find Jackson 2.0 to destroy the Fed and bring back a hard currency.

His left arm was too weak to hold a rifle. There was no desertion, they fought and won a battle and got paid. You also didn't mention the duel where he was shot, he then fired and killed his opponent. Next President? Theodore Roosevelt, another macho man.

A fantastic book to read about him is "The Lost Founding Father: John Quincy Adams and the transformation of America politics" by William Cooper.

This guys life is like 15 different movies. Just an outrageous character. You can do a whole movie about the inaugural party at the white house. He has a lot of the characteristics I identify with America and the American people. When it comes to presidents, its Him & Teddy Roosevelt, those 2 guys had lives rich with experiences.

I've never seen your channel. When I heard the first... Talked trash... I choked on my coffee. Scalding hot coffee forcefully exiting my nostrils was unpleasant, however, I found myself wanting more! Seriously, I had a much needed belly laugh! Thank you for that. I can't wait for the next presentation and the... talked trash that I hope accompanies all your shows! It's obvious that I'm easily amused!

I always find it weird looking at photos of Jackson, not just because we see his portrait on the $20 bill all the time, and it's a picture of a strong, vibrant president, contrasted with an actual picture an old, frail man, but also because he lived so long ago. The history of the United States prior to the Civil War might as well be mythological to most people, with characters such as Washington and Jefferson and Madison taking on these larger than life tasks of founding and creating a country. From the 1860s onward the country we learned about in US History is the modern United States, more or less. They had the same political parties we have today, different iterations of the same issues we debate today, and thousands of photos accompany those lessons. To see a photograph of someone, and the president no less, who lived in the time we're taught was so different from our own, it gives you an 'uncanny' feeling.

Highway 74 in North Carolina has three different names. In Richmond County it’s Andrew Jackson Highway, in Scotland County it’s the Blue Star Highway, and in Robeson County it’s the American Indian Highway. As someone who lives in this area, I always found it interesting that AJH and AIH have a separation in them despite being part of the same stretch of road (and of course the AIH is in the county that’s really big on native Americans).
