and i looked up mcleod's address, and jake had lived next to john andrew jackson in sumter county. so he jackson lived well through the 20th century in in black memory, although he was sort of written out of all standard white history. so let me read you a couple of pages. this is part of an escape that i don't think you hear much about, which is called like section getting off a boat. jackson had talked his way onto a ship coming out of charleston to boston. and a couple of days into the into the journey he was discovered he was actually glad to be discovered because he was dying for and lack of water. and the captain who discovered had very mixed feelings. you was going to terrible logistical and legal to have enslaved person on your boat and so he kept saying if we see a southern ship, i'm going to put you on the southern mount ship. he kept jackson. he was going to send it back south, which would be, of course, a death sentence. so they did not run into such a and they pulled into boston harbor. and so i want to talk about the boat as it pulls into boston harbor. snow flurries,

president monroe hosted a reception at the white house where lafayette to john quincy adams and andrew jackson were all in attendance. lafayette was witness to the first public moment of the new president elect and the man he had defeated had had when jackson entered the reception, many guests had kind of been hanging around hearing that jackson was going to come and they kind of wanted to see what would happen. jackson had a little bit of a reputation, so they wanted to know how these two men would interact. and to the delight or maybe the chagrin of many jackson quickly made his way over to his opponent to clasp his hand. and and congratulations. and perhaps no one was more relieved than adams, who appeared profoundly moved by the gesture. lafayette's arrival seemed to be a magic balm for what newspapers were calling the electoral zeal that envelopes the nation. now, he didn't sway politics by personally, publicly endorsing a candidate, but people really tended to behave when he was around. you have politicians who this this may be hard to imagine, were literally engaged in screaming matches

it seemed likely that andrew jackson would soon become president of the united states he detested. jackson and he still was an idealist to think that american ship of state that was sailing through turbulent waters would come out into a calmer sea, it still unnerved him considerably that what he had always believed would be the case. what did not seem as if would be the case. jefferson always that what jefferson is sort of the paradox of an elitist leader with populist ideas who always believed that the would elect superior leaders like himself. and it didn't seem like that was going to happen. let me provide a lighter note from washington. and he wrote in 1805, a charming letter to his eldest granddaughter granddaughter, it is very long, my dear, since i have received a letter from you one. was it in the meantime verses which she clipped from newspapers have been accumulated to lie find it necessary to get off my hands without further waiting with them. i send abc from cornelia, another granddaughter, four years old. the little recipe of our charcoal is worth your mama's notice. he

i just don't think she should have replaced or should replace andrew jackson on the 20. i think the of bringing about a harriet tubman bill is great. just put her on the $200 bill and and you know we don't see $200 bills in circulation. but one of the effects, unfortunately, of the inflation of the last 40 years is that people are spending higher denominations. so let's give harriet tubman the honor of being on the $200 bill and keep andrew jackson on the 20 the parade for service members who served in the war on terror. talk about that. yeah, there have been very few recognitions, specifically of those who stepped up in the war on terror, who fought in afghanistan and who fought in iraq, who contributed in other ways. and we've seen this before. when there are controversial wars and the iraq war was certainly very controversial, we've seen that it's tough to have the public acknowledge the contributions of american servicemen and servicewomen. i think we need to do more because my remembrance of that time is that it was very, very dark, very difficult. people still, i b

has risen up, a person who has gone down, i would say, or two that have gone down a lot, one is andrew jackson, democrats used to say we're going to have a jefferson jackson day dinner. they don't have that anymore. he's seen as racist and very anti-native american and did things that killed a lot of people in the native american community in particular. he's not well respected today by scholars. another person i would say is -- whose reputation has gone down is woodrow wilson, the great reformer. he's governor of new jersey and then president of the united at. however, he now is widely seen as having done two things that were big mistakes. one, he resegregated the federal workforce and had been integrated. two, and this is very damaging as well, he had a stroke with about 18 months to go. he couldn't do what he had done before. he hid that from the public, and his wife essentially became a shadow president. she was really making decisions and deciding things that maybe he should have decided and the public didn't know this. that was a big problem. >> you often ask biographers what question th

andrew jackson yeah, so a little bit of andrew jackson what the vetoing of the right exactly got the vetoing of the means bill rhode sort of like some echoes of the bank we're here we see this come up and again in presidential history this idea that the president is like i've got the big picture idea. members of congress are just a little bit a little bit parochial and narrow in their vision but they also they have a tendency to come back and say maybe so. but this is what my constitu wants, want. and order to get a law passed. you need congress to vote on a president can't pass laws. and that's pretty much what happens with this water project. carter goes after it other democrats are mad and they end up cutting out about the projects. but it mostly, again, just kind of comes back on the administration that he's he's going these things that are important members of his own party and so he's legislating badly even as trying to do good government. this so i'm talking about inflation just kind of briefly here's a cover of time carter versus inflation. he's kind of taken on new new relev

this is actually going back well, further into american history to the spoils system of andrew jackson. trump would like to get rid of these co, called deep stake bureaucrats and replace them with absolute trump in loyalists who will do whatever he says. but as you point out, these are people without any particular expertise, and they're going to be significant costs to a government where positions of authority are occupied by people who don't know what they're doing. and yet at the same time, when i go into university campuses talk to some of the administrators there, they strikes me as soviet projects. so there's a sense in which a ideology and loyalty to a particular cause are becoming more important. it expertise across the board in these 2 separate caps, or do you think that's still the case as we hear about panels that are going to purge generals from the pentagon, that donald trump doesn't like, or that were involved in certain decisions. they were ordered to do and come up with a kind of trump approved command staff of the united states military forces. yeah. when we talk about

andrew jackson had a very negative campaign a few years later.hat was the year of duals and he killed people in those. when he ran for president, he ran and lost and ran again. his opponents raise the issue that his wife was an adulterous because she had been married before and she thought her marriage -- the divorce had gone through but it had not so she was still legally married when she married andrew jackson and his opponents raised this as an issue against him that he had married an adulterous and she was scorned by a lot of people in washington including the spouses of a lot of people in congress. her name was rachel. she never made it to his inauguration. she died and a lot of people thought she died of a nervous breakdown because she realized how her reputation had been sullied by all of this criticism . jackson always held the death of his wife against his critics. you talk about a negative environment, this is a man who was devoted to his wife and felt his opponents had actually killed his wife by causing her health to be shattered. tha

sending them in until people right now you look at great presidents in american history you look at andrew jackson and abraham lincoln they were all attacked. >> 50 years later they were considered the greatest presidents in american history and non- were attacked like your father, any final words? >> i what i think the american people for that, it's an incredible mandate we look forward to executing it, no one will work harder than my father. i saw the on the campaign trail i watched a guy that is 78 years old due to all nighters in a row and still have an energy level that would put most 25 euros to bed, no one's would work harder for the american people, no one will work harder to put america first, 12 hours he wins and hamas says you do what it does is time to talk about peace, xi jinping says we really have to normalize american relations, everyone understands, daddy's home in the have to start behaving accordingly and it's really incredible, i saw steve madden as her pulling 40% we can build backer manufacturing base, the stock market went up 1.2 trillion dollars when my father was elected,

andrew jackson was the biggest enemy of the idea we should have a central bank at all. with that caveat, we move forward. >> right. not the first jackson reference we had with donald trump. >> right. >> michael, our appreciation and thanks. >> my pleasure. >>> i want to go now to a take from the market historian. jeremy iegel joings s us now. do you think the trump rally can continue? >> most certainly. i was quite interested. he said i'm not going to guarantee a rally. there will be dips. we know that can happen. trump is the most pro-stock market president in history insofar as measuring his own success or worth by how well the stock market does. however, there are many things that can happen that are beyond his control that can give us a bear market. you know, the business cycle is part of the capitalistic economy. there could be external events. geopolitical events. nothing is guaranteed. what is guaranteed is he won't knowingly do anything to harm the american value market. knowingly because there is the law of unintended consequences. many times we don't realize ma

but with andrew jackson symbolic over the british at new orleans january 1815, the war comes to a close on a triumphant for the country and helps restore part of the madison's public reputation. the white house was rebuilt in triumph. i mean, it was rebuilt, madison said. we will be rebuilt. the capital will. they will be rebuilt, as they were in a ground floor service. well, you can still see the original marks left from the inferno as james madison would have looked at these charred stones, the archway, the house was rising again just as george washington it but with construction taking over two years to complete, james and dolley madison will never here again. it is time for a new president and his wife to make their marks on the home. they some of the oldest remaining items that been in continuous use here, and they were brought to the white house by president and first lady whose influence is seen all around the home, but in the blue room. the blue room is the monroe's and one of the most authentic in the house that could go back to one time in the white house. i probably would go

i use andrew jackson's speech announcing the trail of tears, where the u.s.m congress to forcibly remove native americans from their land so america could expand. i thought it it was important to show that words have both a positive and a complicated and negative impact and the words that come out of the president are a major consequence, and no more true is that than today. >> you're a dad, i'm a mom. i'm sure you have been struck by this recent reporting about the decline of civic awareness in this country. not just among young people, but adults. a survey found that less than half of u.s. adults could name the three branches of government. and that one in four could not name any. i literally did a bodily injury for my daughter's girl scout troop on exactly this. that aside, that's in part because americans have never agreed about what should be taught when it comes to our nation's history and government. that's part of it, i think, that's what the explanation is. do you see that as a big problem? do you think books like yours could help young people or is

but in 44, we can come back with van buren again, who had built the democratic party with andrew jackson, had made. the two party system for good or for bad sort of the beginnings of that as part of his vision for the country. and so many democrats coming to the convention thinking they appeared be the nominee. however, right before the convention, when congressman mississippi, a guy named william henry hammett, wrote van buren a letter and van buren replied and if you don't know when you a politician, a letter in this era, particularly someone who's running for president, you were probably to publish that in a newspaper. and that candidate or that politician knew that. and so when they reply. they knew this was going to be public knowledge. and so the main question that that hammett asked van buren was, do you think about the immediate annexation, texas, which had become a big issue? and van buren's reply, which was a very lengthy i'm project after the papers of martin van buren. and so let me tell. martin van buren does not come up with short quotes that are good social media that we r

the first populist, the defiant life of andrew jackson, the last american aristocrat, the brilliant life and improbable education of henry adams and paradise lost a life of scott fitzgerald and richard hofstadter, an intellectual biography. of course, tonight at the new book, we are here for to celebrate is titled a hell of a storm. the battle for kansas, the end of compromise and the coming of the civil war. we've got to be just one blurb. this one's from a dr. alan kelso, who i'm sure we all know. he writes, quote, no one who encounters david brown's new retelling of the infamous nebraska bill will be in any doubt that it was the most toxic piece of legislation ever to pass a u.s. congress with a sharply ironic pen. brown walks us through the terrible unfolding of the year 1854 and the deadly ways it pointed the nation toward civil war. a tour de force and quote, it's an honor to host david and jeffrey here in harrisburg for the official book launch. so without further ado, please join me in giving them a warm round of applause. well, thank you, everyone. it's a pleasure to be back at

my hometown you can still see the warehouses in new orleans that were owned by a fellow named andrew jackson higgins, who built supply boats for oil rigs in the gulf of mexico and the bayou of louisiana. and because people like george marshall had interesting ideas, he went to mr. higgins and said, can you take those supply boats and help me land an army in north africa? and we did. so i don't mean to wax poetic, but we can do these things, but we need a consensus. but we need a consensus based on the american people understanding the threat. and we haven't had that. gen. fenton: hey, oren, i would just add as we talk to our international teammates, many of them say that this era feels eerily familiar to other eras and they pick different ways to say it. if you think about as president kennedy, i think it was the 1961 said something akin to we are at nuclear armed world, but we are not at nuclear war, but we are at lots of low intensity conflicts around the globe that are pulling for the cognitive space of humankind, either toward communism or away from communism western based approach. and

think one of the interesting things i've been trying to square this, like he had the painting of andrew jacksonthe oval office very prominently placed. he mentioned the monroe doctrine at like a un general assembly speech in 2018, like expansionism and kind of manifest destiny is something that, like, clearly appeals to him on some level. i'm not saying he's a historian or a deep reader of presidential texts, but like, it's in there somewhere and he talks about it on some level, especially on these three issues list. >> we will demand that the panama canal be returned to the united states of america in full, quickly and without question. why are we paying canada 150 billion? essentially, we're paying canada and we love canada. i have so many friends, i love canada, i love it essentially, it's a large real estate deal. a lot of things can be done. it's hurting denmark very badly because they're losing almost $700 million a year carrying it. so they carry it at a great loss. and strategically, for the united states, it would be nice. >> so now that i've cited jacksonian democracy and the monroe d

the portrait that donald trump hung in the oval office during his first term was andrew jackson he famouslye chief justice made a decision, now let him enforce it and jackson taunted the court and said we are just not going to follow the orders. the more broad problem here is the one that i think eddie alerts to is in a world in which all institutions suffer from such low degrees of public trust, it is an opportunity for an autocrat to rise because our founders envisioned that there will be multiple power centers in society and they would serve as checks on one another, so none could be too powerful and when all of the other power centers, the media, the courts, congress, the private sector, are showing such weakening signs of public support, it creates an opportunity for some strongmen to come along and say i alone can fix it, only i can be trusted and believed. to ignore everyone else, i can tell you what truth and reality are. >> right, and that is where you see stories, we covered in the first hour, if you are whitewashing or lying about what happened on january 6th and the deadly insur

he's a supporter of andrew jackson, of abraham lincoln, he writes the language for the 15th amendmentgives african-americans the right to vote pretty pushes for women's suffrage, labor reform, he's one of these guys who's always on the forefront. but, he is very independent because he's so independent he moves from party to part you can see him getting squeezed over his life. he is really admirable he's fighting for causes that really are what we have politics for trying to make lives better for working people for discriminating against minorities. because he's stuck in this world of squeezing parties you can see his isolation and him losing his independence over his lifetime and losing his agency. he's raising his daughter to be an activist as well, florence kelley who in her era finds new tools for engagement. cooks can i say one thing about being up divided cosmic there is an argument we could make. we are all very doom and gloom about politics today. but the turnout is higher, the engagement is higher. far higher than the previous area. if you look at the 1990s basically half the
