Discussion

Andrew Jackson is sometimes presented as a man of questionable honor, one who was cruel to certain people-groups and abusive of his authority. While this is definitely part of the picture, Jackson has left a legacy that some historians find positive, even admirable. He was considered the "people's president" and the "representative of the common man."
