Who Is Andrew Jackson Good

364 Words2 Pages

Andrew Jackson was a good, but busy man. My opinion that he is good is because he helped the people grow and he supported them. He was winning battles with them, he set the people free of debt, and he was a good administrator of the public business. He had to go through so much, but everything he did as president was for the country. Jackson led 5,000 soldiers to an unexpected victory over the British in the Battle of New Orleans, this was the last major engagement of the War of 1812. By leading these men to victory he earned a bunch of respect and even the nickname “Old Hickory.” Now being a national hero, Jackson received the thanks of Congress and gold medal. Jackson wanted to fix the national budget in order to free the nation of debt.
