“Gentlemen! I too have been a close observer of the doings of the Bank of the United States. I have had men watching you for a long time, and am convinced that you have used the funds of the bank to speculate in the breadstuffs of the country. When you won, you divided the profits amongst you, and when you lost, you charged it to the bank. You tell me that if I take the deposits from the bank and annul its charter I shall ruin ten thousand families. That may be true, gentlemen, but that is your sin! Should I let you go on, you will ruin fifty thousand families, and that would be my sin! You are a den of vipers and thieves. I have determined to rout you out, and by the Eternal, I will rout you out!” – President Andrew Jackson [1]

Andrew Jackson was one of the most corrupt and racist and also cruel presidents the DNC ever had.
His slaughter of Indians to steal the land and sell it back for a profit was just one of the many things he did that where corrupt. He’s responsible for the trail of tears.
Also the first president to come in poor and leave as on of the richest men in the us

History keeps repeating itself. Any differences from the “Presidents” of today.

And we independent and sovereign citizens simply refuse to follow history we read and study, we keep re-electing the same deranged criminals over and over. As far back as after Jefferson & Madison they found it more “convienient” to ignore the Constitution unless it suited their personal agenda.
