Andrew Jackson?

Question

In what ways was Andrew Jackson a unionist? In what ways was he a states righter?

Answer 1

Andrew Jackson, I believe, was from Tennessee, a southern state in the Conferacy, however we maintained a Union position as to the need to be one nation. He was, like many people from the time of the US revolution, a firm believer that the central influence of political power should be the STATE not the Federal government. Like many people of the day they feared the abuses of a strong central government. Some would point to what we have happening today as examples of what they didn't want to have.

Simply put he want to have the US be a collect of 50 States more than a unified country. It is this basic difference that was the fundamental underlying cause of the Civil War. Not slavery despite what many think.

Answer 2

Andrew Jackson won the presidency after his number 1 hit "Beat Hit" established him as a true hip-hop legend. He followed this up by joining George Michael in the euro-pop duo Wham!, which gave him international experience. AFter leading the UN through 2 decades of unparalleled growth and peace, he opened a Denny's right across the street from Al Gore's house and made a million bucks (a month!)
