Jackson seems angry about something still do not know what is it. I liked how did Jackson’s described how his life has changed because of the photography shop and the drug store he seems so precise and confident.

Jackson started to describe the street where the studio was located, after that he located the drugstore and described what is inside. In addition, he seems like he was…

Background Information and Thesis When America was still in its early years, Indians had a socioeconomic status less than that of a black person -- that is unless they became assimilated tax payers. The U.S. government toyed with them like puppets for years as America expanded west, forcibly securing them in federally controlled reservations under the guise of protecting them. By the mid 1800’s, all Native American tribes resided west of the Mississippi River on reservations due to the Indian…

lunch were their two big meals. The Seminole tribe is notable for its resistance to the United States government in its attempt to relocate the Native Americans. The First and Second Seminole war both resulted from the Seminole resistance. Andrew Jackson was president at time and after both of the wars, the United States gained a loss.

Manifest Destiny was not benevolent, but an aggressive imperialism pursued at the expense of others because America spreaded its boundaries over a vast area.

Pro Impeachment for Andrew Jackson; Introduction; The impeachment of Andrew Jackson is imminent just as much as a necessity for further development regarding the states.
