Andrew Jackson

 Andrew Jackson

Andrew Jackson was an American Major General and President of the United States. Jackson is villified and hated in history books for reasons not completely described. While Jackson is blamed for relocating Native Americans to reservations, there is more to the story than what is described in history books. Andrew Jackson was not establishment meaning he was actually from humble beginnings. He was not born into affluence and was not a trust fund beneficiary. 

Jackson was a soldier and was able to improve and be promoted to the point that he became a commander. In 1812, he fought against the British and won the Battle of New Orleans. The Americans would defeat the British in the War of 1812. Jackson would also fight against Creek Indian tribe uprisings, and also won those battles. Jackson was disciplined and righteous. Jackson had seen that some Native Americans tribes were still hostile despite genuine empathy from Americans and attempted to resolve a manner that there could be serenity between Americans and Native Americans (Native Americans still wanted to war constantly and also do peyote. There are multiple stories of Native American Chiefs that wanted to keep warring for the sake of warring. Socialist lies state that Native Americans lived in harmony without wars and it was the "Pilgrims who started wars". The same "evil" Pilgrims (knew about disease and bacteria in the 1600s while germ theory was yet to be discovered in the 1800s by Louis Pasteur) who knowingly gave free blankets with disease to Native Americans.)

Jackson decided to create reservations and allow the Native Americans to still live in the US in reservations. The history books describe that he was a "dictator" and hated Native Americans arbitrarily when this was a blatant lie. (The Pilgrims created Jamestown in the 1600s, and the Native Americans burned down that settlement in 1676. Other Native America Chiefs kept attacking settlements despite Pilgrims being kind and caring.) Instead Jackson had the first hand account of the reality having served in different wars. 

Who really hated Andrew Jackson? The establishment of those times for being genuine, brave, patriotic, and humble. Jackson was elected in 1828 and was a humble president. Jackson thwarted the creation of the Second American Bank of the US based on what we considered "elite interests". (Alexander Hamilton had fought against the First Bank and was hated also). The Bank was meant to print unlimited money in order to stimulate the economy. Jackson was against printing money that was not backed by silver, gold, or precious metals. This is the real story of the hatred against Andrew Jackson. Jackson also promoted humble individuals from modest backgrounds to positions in the White House. This irritated the establishment who only wanted socialists and establishment members in positions of authority even in the 1800s. Jackson was an individual that was humble throughout his life and no dictator. Jackson cared about citizens, wanted serenity and harmony between everyone, and fought the Bank that wanted to print unlimited money. Andrew Jackson was an amazing president. (I myself am of multiple ethnicities including part Native American and not offended at the truth.) 

Figures of History and Individualism is meant to remind us that there are good people despite the lies of the snake. While the snake says that "everyone sins and is evil," the reality is that there have been and there are individuals who are good, positive, practice integrity, and hate evil. We can persevere practicing civil disobedience, pacifism, and worshiping GOD Almighty above everything of this temporary and imperfect world. We can persist acknowledging that GOD Almighty is everything to us and deny the lies of the snake.
