Andrew Jackson: The People's President
1,067 words, approx. 4 pages
 Andrew Jackson was one of the most popular U.S. presidents in American history. As president from 1829 to 1837, Jackson remained a man of the people; his stands on various issues, particularly the Bank of the United States, the Tariff of 1828, and the Indian Removal Act, all were made with the people in mind. While some historians point to these issues as evidence that Jackson abused his power, in fact he used his powers not for his own good, but to benefit the people.
