Yes. I am aware of the significance. The British had just defeated Napoleon and decided to come over here to straighten the unresolved matter of Americans “Revolutionary War”. Old Hickory sent them packing with their tails between their legs (and the body of the Admiral of the British Fleet in a barrel, pickled).

NICE!

Actually for these and other reasons (e.g., taking on the proto-FED and getting USA completely out of debt!!) I was disappointed that the movie, “Hillary’s America,” made Jackson a villain. In my opinion, he was one of the greatest American leaders of all time.

It would be a TRAGEDY if they are allowed to take down the Jackson statue. Next they’ll be coming after the Washington Monument, the Jefferson Memorial etc.

WE MUST DRAW A LINE IN THE SAND!
