jackson and andrew jackson developed a successful legal practice on the frontier area on the edge of civilization. he did lots of contested land claims as part of his legal visit, you are saying it is my land, the boundary is not that tree. people were arguing about land. these were adventurous people and think about the women who had the fortitude to come on this madcap adventure. racial donaldson's parents were part of the leading effort, her father who was 51 years old, james robertson was in his 30s, the perfect frontiersman but he was more of a virginia gentleman but he saw opportunity and he was coming. he and his wife have children that are grown, one of his daughters to the ohio river on these flat boats, come all the way down the tennessee river than up the ohio and cumberland to hear. when they got to the ohio river they decided they could not go upstream and they headed for mississippi. and jackson was here and nashville grows but the city, the town itself does not grow very rapidly. it is a wild place. the scotch irish were highly literate, those who signed the cumberland

now, our major general of our militia -- tennessee is a state, mind you -- is andrew jackson. and he has defeated john certificate veer in that the contest, he has defeated john seveir. you know, that older generation that had been in some way or another affected by the revolutionary war, they had experienced war. they were not so ready to go. but the younger whippersnappers that are here, they are ready to go avenge the deaths at duck river. and thenuc the creeks again make an attack, and this time it's in alabama almost to gulf -- to the coast down towards-- the coast there. they have a large group of settlerse there, and the creeks attack them at fort mims and pretty much killil everybody, women and children. so our governor is ready to call up the militia, and he finally gets permission from president madison to go could be this. -- to go do this. so we've got to get to our militia down there to avenge all of these killings of settlers. well, there's one small problem with our mill saw. -- militia. it seems that our major general has been in a little bit of a barroom drawl

. >> on h behalf of andrew jackson foundation, i want to welcome you to jackson's home and to inaugural history in court or program. today the is the first installment of a three-part series to celebrate the bicentennial of the first version ofof the hermitage mansion's completion in 1821. for the prior 17 years, the jacksons have loved in a two-story -- lived in a two-story log farmhouse on this property. in november of that year, they moved into their newly-completed dream home, my term. the house is nucleus of the mansion we treasure today. in history uncorked, we want to give our participants, you, a sense of early 19th century social, economic, political and aesthetic context of times in which jacksons live and when the mansion was constructed. ed today we are honored to have dr. carol busey as the first speaker in our history uncorked series. dr. busey is professor of history at volunteer state community college. she holds a ph.d. in history from vanderbilt university as well as history degrees from baylor university and george peabodyrg college. sorry. in 2011 dr. busey was appoi

and lincoln and fdr are great presidents and you can see using the standards wipe andrew jackson is a great president. billy knew modern democratic party out of his personal following including something like presidents of character maybe it is not going to mean that jackson is great president. and no presidents and fdr according to them had achieved this level of greatness and to close this would be lyndon johnson, and ronald ragan and johnson ultimately failed because his civil rights with the democratic party drives at southern democrats eventually to the republicans and reagan failed to because he's not really interested in pumping the republican party, he's more interested in protecting his personal popularity. an alternative way would be why moderates lead to the best presidents and you're all familiar with that now. the ee argues that it is muscular moderation that does not mean simply doing what is popular at the moment and i would be spineless central is him and muscular moderation it and boldly governing from the center. charting leadership pass extremes of american politi

i don't want my kid learning that andrew jackson was a vial, purveyor of genocide. please stop teaching my kid. that that is what i want to go vote for. you see, youngkin's credit is not the same as the outright racism that we heard from donald trump. calling immigrants from countries criminals, and rapists. it is subtle or, more -- channeling some energy -- the republican base here's the message flooding clear just as you heard. and as trump told fox news over the weekend youngkin needs that piece. >> i think he should win. i think he should. i'll be honest. my base has to turn out. if my base turns out, he is going to win. and i heard they turnout. i really want them to turn. >> you see what trump is doing there to? he is trying to claim credit for this victory, so we could call in the favor later. >> so youngkin's campaign is return to form for the republican party. give yourself just enough plausible deniability in the messaging that you push. you can flip some swing voters with a alienating your core base that worked up around these white backlash issues, but a

the lyrics of the song was putting down andrew jackson at the time. >> well, i mean, i think a lot of people would credit andrew jackson with the genocide of the native population. >> yes, but how do you discuss it without. >> denigrating whites? >> yeah, at what point do you forgive and stop segregating. >> there it is, i mean, that's just one woman's opinion, but she's representative. i don't want my kid learning that andrew jackson was a vile purveyor of genocide, please stop teaching my kid that. that's what i want to vote for. you see, youngkin's rhetoric is not the same as the outright racism we heard under donald trump, calling immigrants from mexico criminals and rapists, it's channelling very real anxiety among suburban college educated parents who voted for joe biden. the republican base hears the message loud and clear, and as trump told fox news over the weekend, youngkin needs that base. >> i think he should in. i mean, he should win. i'll be honest, my base has to turn out. if my base turns out, he's going to win, and i hope they turn out. i really want them to turn out.

your kid really did have an assignment that really did call andrew jackson a purveyor of ethnic cleansing anita it looked like that. but i also wonder, how much this sort of education issue and all this stuff, how much that was playing, and how much this is just like what our national environment, is kind of in a backlash moment in what it looks like. >> i think you have to look at a couple of different weather patterns in virginia. the first is that the state has seen this dramatic racial -- in the last 20 5:30 years, there's been a lot of growing pains to put it lately around that. the naacp has had its sights on the virginia school system for a while because of racists incidents, in complaints, and as a response to that, and current events like for example, the murder of george floyd, or are mine, arbery or breonna taylor, the school system is trying to be more inclusive in its curriculum. conservatives in the state, magnified by the dark money conservative movement, and fox news, has called a critical race theory, but what's happening is a bid to make the curriculum taught in schools,

when we forget the examples of such i'men as washington, jefferson and andrew jackson all of them have had a continuation in office. then we will start down the road to dictatorship and growing. both men also inspired truman to embrace private life after the presidency. seen here e you got , reading with steps in their home on delaware street and independence missouri. when asked by an editor of his memoirs if you like to read himself to sleep atnight truman answered no young man, i like to read myself a . interested in following in truman's file footsteps, here's a list to get you started. with our clients, benjamin franklin's autobiography. given the decline and fall of the roman empire. misery struggle for statehood, plato's republic. the complete works of robert first. the completeworks of lord byron . edward shepard 15 decisive battles of the world. charles pearson's economic interpretation of the constitution and william shakespeare, all of his writings. overwhelmed yet? a little piece of advice. it's been a lifelong program for me and if you start out even on this incomplete lis

he resigned from the senate in february 1836 rather than vote to expunge the censure of andrew jackson. the whig party led by henry clay in the senate had passed a resolution of censure that took president jackson to task for moving the bank deposits that inaugurated the bank more in jackson's second term. when the democrats regained control of congress they passed what was known as the expunging resolution. but they aim to do was expunge the censure from the senate journal to literally get it out of the record of the senate journal. tyler was instructed to vote for the expunging resolution by the virginia legislature. he refused, he resigned in february 1836 out of principal. but he returned to politics yet again a year end a half later. he was elected to the virginia legislature for the third time. again we see a pattern of looking at a way to try to continue his political career by using the legislature as a springboard. he got himself nominated as vice president at the whigs at their convention their national convention they nominated william henry harrison. then of course we defea

in fact, the national debt hasn't hit 0 since the andrew jackson administration in the 830. but major event such as world war 2911 and the great recession has added to it significantly over the years. and many may remember when the national debt hit one trillion dollars for the 1st time back in 1981. the ronald reagan administration combined an increase in defense spending with tax cuts. the deficit increase slightly under the clinton administration, and it stood around 5 trillion dollars with george w bush took office, but it didn't. his administration more than doubled that number. bringing to over 10 trillion dollars. president brock obama then doubled it again, raising the national debt to nearly 20 trillion dollars. now in order to fully understand how the national that impacts the country, we have to look at where it stands compared to our gross domestic product. now, last year, spending and response to the pandemic brought the debt to g d p ratio to 105 percent marking its highest points in world war q. but if we go back to the 1990 s, we'll find that the ratio stood

all kinds of problems and then bringing in andrew jackson smith troops from abroad and out and again thomas has a lot to do with his plate will not strike before he is ready because he knows the worst thing he can do is launch a blow that isn't successful. so it has to be overwhelming and he has to get the job done. but john calhoun could tell you different he is about to get smashed it's another one of those things with the sledge of nashville to hammer him. so one thing that thomas complained to wilson was they treat me like a child they don't think i'm capable of doing a campaign. after the success and then to finish them off and then said dang it i told you we would like them. and that is when thomas repeated something he was very excited. and when you try to get regular promotions and then is happy to get it but also not happy because to say i earned this earlier i earned us at chickamauga. not here at nashville. i will take it. talk about doing the cemetery wayne and i both like cemeteries. and before it was power washed. he is not buried in virginia. he is buried in troy new y

this was one of the things that divided henry clay from andrew jackson and the idea of could a federal government expend its power to build projects that might just be of local significance, and we ultimately decided, yes, and this is a manifestation of that. the first bill, i think, got 68 republican votes in the senate, which, you know, polarized year, like getting 104. if you do the delta on that. i think it's a big day. i remember i first read about the infrastructure crisis as i remember 28 years ago seeing a report on that. and it took us a long time as a country, and i think that the president and the members of congress deserve our thanks. >> listen, we kind of joke when we say that we have had so many infrastructure weeks. every week it seemed with the former president it was infrastructure week and nothing got done. folks remember that, he never managed to get an infrastructure deal himself and he is now promising to oust every republican who voted for the bill when he was trying to get an infrastructure bill through himself. what are the chances democrats and republicans act

jackson would love to have us. and so that is the politics that were going on. it was a coat option of this idea that we're fighting for federalism. it was really a fight for permission. >> and greatly propaganda really start there and continues going on 200 years. the dastardly santa and the their fighting for their freedom, they had their freedom they had more freedom and mexico was 30 years of research has shown. this was not a white community and mexico that was being beaten down or anything. they had gotten everything they wanted and more. and in the end what they wanted was to have their own militant slave nation which is what they got for ten years. >> let's talk a little bit about some of that propaganda and how early on it started. hope might be, i don't know if there was one person, who was most responsible for what a lot of people imagine the alamo to be. it starts as soon as the accounts we got from susan dickinson i'm blinken on a first name coming out in her having an evolving account of what happened

jackson. the wig party led by henry clay haden passed the resolution of censure that took president jackson to task for removing the bank deposits which inaugurated the bank war t in jackson's secd term. but whened the democrats regain control of congress, they passec what was known as the expunging resolution. and what they aimed to do was expunge the censure from the senate journal, to literally get it out of the record of the senate journal. tyler was r instructed to vote r the expunging resolution by the virginia legislature. he refused. he resigned in february of 1836 out of principle. but he returned to politics yet again a year and a half later. he was elected to the virginia legislature for the third time. again, we see this pattern of looking at a way to try to continue his political career by using the t legislature as the springboard. he got himself nominated as vice president by the wigs at their convention in december of 1839, their national convention that nominated william t hen

henry clay and andrew jackson disagreed about it. only about the time of the civil war was it resolved that the federal government had a role to do -- government should do what people cannot do for themselves. providing the means for propet and bringing communities together is broadly defined and agreed upon american initiative. in that sense, you both are right. it's both good policy and it's good politics for president biden. it's an example where he got republican votes for something, which is a vanishingly rare thing, like finding a tteradactl somewhere. what we're looking at is folks who are not big biden supporters is that we have to prove -- we broadly put -- has to prove that competent is not as rare as people think it is, and democracy can deliver for its people. if you can check those boxes, then it's not going to break the fever that's on the right, but it might bring it down a little bit. >> you put it so clearly, jon, and that goes to why this infrastructure bill is different. people can imagine things that biden could h

jackson. you have all sorts of different ages fighting and engaged in combat. further north, whispers, plotting. after philadelphia arnold is ready to return to command, brought up on court-martial charges in philadelphia and found guilty and his reprimand was relatively light, a public censure from washington that boils down to armed conduct not having included this and will change future. a little light tap. arnold is furious. his last protector, washington, has betrayed him, america has offended his honor, he's lost to all. so he's going to plot, daring change, defect to the british, placed at west point. west point, the military academy, was a fort and washington is shocked by this because he knows arnold wants to fight in battle. why does he want an outpost but he agrees, west point is crucial for this right here. it is along the hudson and what that is is literally a big thick chain this back that stretches across the hudson river. what do you think it is meant to do? keep out ships. wou

it goes back to andrew jackson attacking john quincy adams for the corrupt bargain that got quincy adams the presidency. they repeated the same line for four years until jackson got elected president, and then populism exploded in america including taking down things like the bank and leading to bad recessions. we have to remember that this is not the way to actually govern and have prosperity in the country. and i do hope that we can through the mandates expand to 85% or so of the population vaccinated. we're now at 61%. if we can get all those children from 5-11 vaccinated and then more adults through the employer mandate and osha's employer mandate, we can get to 85. then the world really is going to change. we are going to get 2.0. out of the emergency. covid is going to become a respiratory illness. we'll have to do things and have to protect ourselves, but it won't be an emergency. it will be like the flu, which is problematic, does kill some people, but it's not a global emergency that causes 750,000 deaths in the country inside of 18 months. that is the key change. they have no p

andrew jackson died and said the president have to become an ordinary in sheet, or is that an article to read that's what for the house of windsor to do those things are in a separate head of state and head of government. therefore the ceremonial secretions gathered around the office of the presidency and made it hold more claim presents and swollen area. >> why you think we still have the presidency, is it just the easiest thing to talk about ? >> it's the easiest thing to talk about. modern technology helps . first radio which i think when we get a little more distant people in radio was actually a more fundamentally revolutionary change and television . because radio gave us , was crucial to the not departed. one of the first things they did is when he got in was make radio cheap where everyone could have a radio. radio made the bully pulpit residents . when was the first set down to give his first fireside chat, he began with two words that do not appear fixed. they were my friends. try to imagine george washington saying my friends. or calvin coolidge to pick another of my heroes

they vandalized the statue of andrew jackson. tried to vandalize the commerce building. tried to storm into the department of interior. police officers were assaulted and injured. more than 50 arrests as well. welcome to the macro trends advisors founding partner, mitch roschelle. these are the underlying streams and trending through the u.s. economy. american people, moderates out there are saying what we see the activists do, we don't like it. vulnerable house democrats balking at the biden agenda. they may go against the vote tomorrow in congress on that. what do you say about all of this? >> listen, we all care about the climate. we also care about the economy and, it is pretty rich that the countries like china weren't there. countries like russia weren't there at this so-called summit. china is still building new coal powered plants. should the united states make all these sacrifices so china can continue to pollute the planet? it doesn't make sense. i don't think we necessarily have partners in this climate process. elizabeth: yeah. >> and the restrictions on the

jackson would love to have it. so that's kind of the internecine politics that were going on. but it was a co-option of this idea that we're fighting for federalism. it was really a fight for permission to hold slaves. >> and andrea, the propaganda really starts there and continues for going on 200 years. this idea that the texians were oppressed by the dastardly santa ana, that they were fighting for their freedom, they had their freedom. they had more freedom than anyone in mexico, as 30 years of scholarly research has shown. this was not a white community in mexico that was being beaten down or anything. they had gotten everything they wanted and more and in the end what they wanted was, you know, to have their own militant slave nation, which is what they got for ten years. >> let's talk a little bit about some of that propaganda and, you know, how early on it started, and, you know, who might be -- i don't know if there's one person or, you know, what -- who was most responsible for kind of what a lot of peopl

andrew jackson his first day in office abolish the federal bank. president wilson reestablished -- established the federal reserve, central bank, in his presidency. when he left office when asked by the press what in your administration did you consider to be the worst decision, he said that that was the fed. the federal reserve is controlled by blackrock and vanguard. people need to look at these corporations. vanguard has existed for 155 years. vanguard and blackrock collectively own more stocks in wall street than anybody. they own the fed. two jerome powell, -- to jerome powell, i know six weeks ago it was uncovered in the press that he was in his stock portfolio, the majority of his stock portfolio, is indeed blackrock and vanguard. they are a public company that controls governments around the world. they are the ones we should fear. not jerome powell, the democrats and republicans, it is this one world order. vanguard and blackrock. the last one that i will say is you wonder why the home prices are going up? these corporations are buying hom

and dick mel said, he is a jacksonian democrat, not jesse jackson, but andrew jackson, to the victor go the spoils. you elect rod, and we will get you some jobs, basically, that kind of thing. and the downstaters went strongly for him. he ended up winning the primary. our member seeing him campaigning at our state fair one day at an open covered area. it was on a weekend and there were a few hundred people. when he finished talking about his father who came from europe who worked at a steel company in chicago and his mother who took nickels and dimes at the public transit in chicago so they could get their kids through college and get them a good education, when he finished this, there was a line about a block long mostly women waiting to meet him and have them sign their sweatshirts. he had charisma. then he got to be governor. it turned out he didn't want to do much. he stayed in chicago most of the time should there was an eight minute report that ended up a few years later in chicago that he was in his bathrobe coming out of his house at 10:00 in the morning because he was not go

thankfully, people are really interested in sam houston and andrew jackson. it was a natural progression. we don't need another book about the civil war. lincoln is the most written about subject in our history. nobody writes about presidents more than people write about abraham lincoln. but i thought here's a relationship. let's talk about race, the evil of slavery, let's talk about a man that overcame it, the so-called self-made man, and let's talk about a guy with abject poverty whose mom dies at 9 years old who no one thought would amount to everything but was determined to amount to everything. along the way, there's inspirational stories, but i saw parallel tracks and quickly coincide to help us come out on the other side of a brutal civil war. and i thought if we could tell those stories, if i could tell those stories parallel, see them coincide, and instead of having people's opinion, they wrote so much, every speech is transcribed. most of their work, the newspaper, editorials by frederick douglass almost on a daily basis. you could really see what t
