Andrew Jackson should be ranked as the best Democrat President of the United States and perhaps in the top five overall.
Rarely, perhaps never, has there been a president who preferred gold and silver more and despised central banking more than President Andrew Jackson.
Lets put Jackson on the new $100 gold piece after closing the federal reserve, eliminating fiat "legal tender", and jailing all who have led the bankster cartel in looting the taxpayers.
The one you should be exposing is "Saint" Lincoln.
I understand Jackson's preference toward silver and gold. Does make him a weird choice for paper money. I digress. I didn't think that meant as much as the reasons I gave in the piece. What I was getting at, albeit subtly, is that Presidents shouldn't over step their bounds. Biddle played a game of chicken that he couldn't win because Jackson's ego would never let him lose. Points to you for the cartoon. The many headed monster, however, illustrates Jackson's strong-man tendencies that I really feel uncomfortable with. Americans should not be praising strongmen who work outside the Constitution and disregard the other two branches. The president should not make changes to the government on his own. That's what Congress and it's many checks and balances are for and one of the things I hate most about modern presidents.
Thank you for the feedback!

Jackson as a choice for paper money is somewhat ironic, just as the choice of Ayn Rand for the new $10 would have been.
