Jackson and his brother were released from the camp and began a 40 mile long trip home. Jackson’s brother Robert passed away, but Andrew amazingly survived. By 14, both of Jackson’s parents would be deceased.

Jackson is well known in history for fighting the US National Bank as he believed it favored the wealthy.

Opponents of Jackson said he did whatever he pleased and disregarded the Constitution. The use of the “Veto” made it appear as Jackson was abusing his powers as President.

In 1833, Jackson threatens South Carolina to comply with the law. (Force Bill) South Carolina threatens to leave the United States. A compromise is created, but a Civil War was just narrowly averted.
