America First Expands Westward
Andrew
Jackson
seventh
President of the United States
(1829–1837). He was
military governor of
Florida (1821), commander of
the American forces at the
Battle of New Orleans
(1815), and
eponym of the era of
Jacksonian democracy . A
polarizing figure who dominated
American politics in the
1820s and 1830s, his political
ambition combined with widening
political participation, shaping
the modern
Democratic Party .
His legacy is now seen as mixed,
as a protector of popular
democracy and individual
liberty, checkered by his
support for
Indian removal and
slavery . Renowned for his
toughness, he was nicknamed “Old
Hickory." As he based his career
in developing
Tennessee , Jackson was the
first president primarily
associated with the
American frontier ."
