[Ish-Kabibble] People at my school badger me for this, but I like Andrew Jackson. I've read two biographies about him and I've fallen in love with his character. He was hard-working, patriotic, clever and he's on the twenty dollar bill. =D Many people hold the "Trail of Tears" thing against him, but he was really only looking out for the well-being of the Americans living near Indian territory. He never knew the winter would be so harsh that many would die. Some even thought he hated Indians, but people rarely hear how he adopted a Creek baby during the battle of Horseshoe bend. :[ Over all, he seems like a person I wish I had the chance to know.
My second favorite would have to be Teddy Roosevelt. He seems like an interesting person who helped take a step in preserving our country's wilderness.
Andrew Jackson, I don't think he should have been blamed for that, it was fairly new territory, and our science back then was very little...
As for Teddy Roosevelt... yay, I completely agree, the ideal that we can help the world by ending violence in areas, and saving some nature spots... back then they thought that it'd take forever to expand that great... little did they know that our medical industries would quickly discover millions of things... but I disagree with what he did at the Panama!

Ish, I don't want to alarm you but I think I've fallen in love with you. You political views have amazed me and this has just sealed the deal. I got onto this thread to post my favorite president, and imagine my surprise when I found someone who agreed with me. Most people wouldn't even consider Andrew Jackson but he was an incredible man and president. He believed firmly in the people and the states.
Something to munch on: Andrew Jackson was in a duel and knew he wasn't a very good shot so he decided he'd shoot second so he wouldn't have to rush his shot. His opponent shot him in the chest. Andrew Jackson put his hand over the wound, fires, kills the man. Tough. As. Nails.
