Was Andrew Jackson a great president? Opinions are mixed. What is yours? Consider the words that Jackson biographer James Parton wrote in 1859:

"Andrew Jackson, I am given to understand, was a patriot and a traitor. He was one of the greatest of generals, and wholly ignorant of the art of war... He was the most candid of men, and was capable of the profoundest dissimulation... A democratic autocrat [dictator]. An urbane [sophisticated] savage. An atrocious [awful] saint."

Now write a well-constructed essay (two paragraphs) of your own about the quality of the Jackson presidency. Be sure to start with a clear thesis statement and then give specific examples of events and issues to support your position.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes he was a great president (not as good as George Washington though)

Explanation:

Jackson become a hero for defeating the British Army at New Orleans, that is what made him such a good president, he was also a general for the United States Army and then In January of 1832, while the President was dining with friends at the White House, someone whispered to him that the Senate had rejected the nomination of Martin Van Buren as Minister to England. Jackson jumped to his feet and exclaimed, “By the Eternal! I’ll smash them!” So he did. His favorite, Van Buren, became Vice President, and succeeded to the Presidency when “Old Hickory” retired to the Hermitage, where he died in June 1845.

Answer 2

Answer:

I believe that he was because it overcomes his negative effects as president.

Explanation:

    I believe that he was because it overcomes his negative effects as president. Yes, he was a traitor and a dictator which I do not stand for. However, he did so much good at the same time. He was the only President to be a veteran in the Revolutionary War and War of 1812. He was a President that remained committed to this nation and protected the common man and common welfare of the common man. He did enslave people but many President's at the time did that too. For example, George Washington owned/inherited slaves as well. In the 1800s, slavery was still in existence and people had yet to learn that it was wrong. It took many movements and reformations when Christianity played a massive role to eliminate slavery and establish equality.

   Andrew Jackson also had some remarkable effects on our economy such as erasing the U.S. economy's debt entirely. He used his commanding presence, strong mindedness, good willpower, and a personality that ultimately showed a reflection of his decisiveness and strength not only as a President but as a person. He grew very popular and became known as the people's President by putting an end to the Second Bank and founding the Democratic Party. Unlike many Federalists, he supported individual rights and liberties and in the pursuit of happiness. He also negotiated in the trade agreement with Great Britain which opened American trade with Canada and the British West Indies. Even though President Jackson owned slaves and tried to veto a bill, without him, our nation would have still been in enormous debt, trade would be limited, the outcomes of the wars would have been different, and we wouldn't have a Democratic Party.

A lion's roar can be heard five miles away
The lion has the loudest roar of all the big cats. It's so loud it can reach 114 decibels (at a distance of around one meter) and can be heard from as far away as five miles.

Answers

Answer:

The volume has to do with the shape of the lion's larynx. The lions' square and flat vocal cords allow them to respond easier to air passing through. Therefore, they produce a louder roar with minimal effort.

In a paragraph of 3–5 sentences, evaluate how the Immigration Act of 1965 changed the demographics of the United States.

Answers

The immigration act of 1965 changed the demographics of the united states in many ways. The quota for immigrants being demolished allowed all types of immigrants. The number of Latina, Hispanic and Asian immigrants increased and so did the amount of culture that came with them. The United States became more of a melting pot after the Act of 1965 was passed.

(Please use a paraphrasing tool!)

The immigration act removed the discrimination against Asians, and the southern and northern Europeans thus changed the demography of the United States.

What is the immigration act of 1965?

The immigration act of 1965 was passed by Congress and signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson.

The Act repealed a previous quota system based on national origin and replaced it with a new immigration strategy centered on reuniting immigrant families and bringing skilled labor to the United States.

Thus, the immigration act removed the discrimination against Asians, and the southern and northern Europeans, thus all immigrants were allowed which change the demography of the United States.

the concept that a State's people should vote whether to be a Slave state or Free state

Answers

Answer:

Though slavery is now a widely unaccepted concept, the concept that a State's people should vote whether to be a Slave state or a Free state is still a vivid topic in most history classes.

The concept that a State's people should vote during the time of slavery meant that white men were only allowed to vote. Blacks nor women were allowed to. Along with that, state's believed that by giving men the right to vote whether state should be a Slave or a Free state would fall on the choices of those within the state and what they believed in. It fell under the concept or popular sovereignty, in which people of each state/territory would decided the fate of the State.

C. Each state would be represented equally.
D. One house of Congress would be based on equality and the other house would be

Answers

Answer:

it d

Explanation:

The statement, One house of Congress would be based on equality, and the other house would be, is not true of the Great Compromise.

Explanation:

The Great Compromise is also known as the Connecticut Compromise.

It provided a dual system of congressional representation.The Great Compromise made the Senate based on the New Jersey Plan's and the House of Representatives based on the Virginia Plans.The Great Compromise broke the stalemate created by the disagreement between large states and small states over representation in Congress based on equal state representation or over proportional representation.

Therefore, we can conclude that the Great Compromise played a crucial role to split the legislative branch into two houses.

Thus the correct option is D which is not true of the Great Compromise.

Why might someone not like Capitalism?

Answers

Answer:

Capitalism concentrates all of its efforts on profiting those who have the means to invest while ignoring those who don’t and also ignoring externalities. It is content to pollute and destroy our planet and falsely justifies it all in the name of a questionable greater good. No amount of wealth will make up for a destroyed ecosystem. It, all too often, treats workers as expendable - enslaving them through economic necessity instead of chains - instead of as fellow human beings.

It divides people into those who have only their labor and wits (and those of others) with which to acquire the necessities of life and those who can sit back and do nothing productive, living and getting rich, instead, off of rent - collecting money for the use of something that they did not create. This is especially true of “earning” interest on money that never existed until the banker creates the loan
