Andrew Jackson's disregard for native Americans is not unlike our current administration's disregard for any people that do not agree with their world view.  They are not given basic rights.

By not practicing it!  Actually, I believe that Hitler called for citizens to voluntary turn in their privately owned weapsons.  Interestingly enough, it was the Jewish community that was the first to comply.  And I believe we all know where it went from there as it related to the Jewish community.\n\nHow can we make it better?  Retain our right to bear arms, that's how!  Vehemently and vocally oppose any efforts, whatsoever, that removes our right to bear arms.\n\nFor the poster who answered that those who own guns are more likely to die from them:  do you think the criminal element is going to surrender their guns?  If you do, then you are deluding yourself.\n\nLastly, after the fall of the U.S.S.R., a prominent high ranking military Officer was asked why they had never attacked the United States when the U.S.S.R. was a SuperPower.  His answer?  "Because everyone knows every American is armed."  That should speak volumes.\n\n"Those who do not learn from the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them."

No it isn't a cheap tactic.\n\nThe reason is because you have to look at the bigger picture. Remember that movie 'Red Dawn' where the USA had been occupied and lost. There was a group of teenagers who setup roadside attacks. \n\nThat is what ppl do when they have been occupied by a country that is more powerful. I mean what do you expect? Do you think they will just say 'oh ok let me just give up my way of life and culture' and surrender to this all powerful boss.\n\nThat isn't human nature. They fight back in the only manner they can knowing they can't take us head to head. Would we not do the same?

The Federalist Papers advocated the proposition that the colonies should have a strong centralized government that would downplay to some extent the notion of states' rights.   It lined up as a game of wills between the forces led by Alexander Hamilton (Federalists) and those of Thos. Jefferson (Republcans).  In the end, there was naturally a certain amount of equivocation on the part of both sides but a deal got done.  Unfortunately, the most important issue of all -- slavery-- was set aside and not properly addressed.  For purposes of the government, a slave was counted as 3/5 of a white person.   Failure to resolve the SLAVERY issue properly eventually was a cause of the CIVIL WAR!!!!

By using similar tactics that Hitler used

Civil Disobedience was one of the tactics used.\n\nIm White myself and an Uncle of mine (well actually he is Ex-Husband of my Aunt by blood but I still refer to him as Uncle anyways since I do not disown him at all inspite of the Divorce), but anyways in the 60's back when he was married to a previous Wife he had before marrying my Aunt well downin the State of Georgia he went into a Restaurant with a friend of his who was Black.\n\nMy Uncle got told he could get Coffee but his Friend could not, so then my Uncle sent his Friend out to the Car, my Uncle ordered 2 Cups of Coffee, took the Cups of Coffee to the Car, gave one to his Friend and was promptly arrested for it.

This is such a complicated question.  You ask much.\nSimply the founding fathers tried to create a system that would prevent any one man from declaring himself king, so they set up the 3 branches to create checks and balances hoping to keep extreme people from taking us in a bad direction and if that happened to provide a way to get back to balance.\n\nThe Pres does make foreign policy and if he is only willing to believe the things he wants to believe we get the Katrina foreign policy disaster we have now.  In theory congress can check him but until now they have just been Yes men and gone along using pack mentality.\nThings should get very interesting this winter. Stay tuned.

You can't. there must be some form of power. for every action there is a re-action. It's like getting a mule to move, without an incentive.

He actually lost more battles that he won, but thanks to some good commanders around him he won two strategic battles against the British - Saratoga in 1777 and Yorktown in 1781\n\nIn actual fact as a military strategist he was pretty hopeless, but thanks to those around him America gained its Independence.\n\nIf Washington had been allowed to dictate the strategy for every battle we would be singing "God save the Queen" and flying the Union flag.\n\nHowever, thanks to Hollywood and some romantic ideals we see him both as a great patriot (which he was), and as a great leader (which is highly debatable).

Jackson did. Robert Vincent Remini's book, "Andrew Jackson," goes into detail of his many reforms including; public education, abolishing debtor's prisons, women's rights, care for the poor, world peace, temperance, improved prisons and insane asylums, and the abolition of slavery.\n\nJ. Q. Adams also supported women's rights.His mother, Abagail, was a staunch supporter of women's rights, and so was his wife Louisa.

The president must propose adgendas to congress. He must uphold defend and protect the constitution(unlike wiretaps, patriot act). He must be an excellent orator(search bush quotes). He must be an excellent diplomat and hold alliances(bush sr. did at least).\n\nHistorically,\nbeing white, protestant, and rich are unofficial helpers.

Basics like 'how to participate', at least one of his representatives, and who the president is (prob sec. of state too.)\n\nThen there's the history... should know who we got independence from, first president, and a bit about social equality and the fight for rights for blacks and women. (refrencing Rossie the Riviter, Rosa Parks, MLK Jr. and Lincoln)

The Prez:     Abraham Lincoln\nThe 3 Words:  Honesty Integrity Freedom\n\n\nThe Sermon:\nBack before the Reaganista coup, the Republicans used to be proud of the man who launched their party into the national scene. They called themselves "The Party of Lincoln". They reveled in the moral certitude "The Great Emancipator" conveyed upon their party.\n\nBut now the Repugnantans would just as soon sweep Lincoln under a rug; he interferes with their "Southern Strategy" (that is the two-word name of the strategy; the essence of the strategy can also be summed up in two words: "Embrace Bigotry"). There is certainly no place for Abraham Lincoln in a party like that. That is okay; we Democrats are more than happy to adopt him and everything he once stood for.\n\nAs for the "Southern Strategy," the Repugnantans are welcome to all the KKKers and neo-Nazis they can handle. Their short-term gains are on the verge of being washed away by the long term tide of public disgust.

The flexibility of the Constitution was used argument by some of the key architects for its passage.  I highly recommend that you get a copy of the Federalist Papers, a series of articles written under by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay.  \n\nThe entire purpose of The Federalist Papers  was to gain popular support for the then-proposed Constitution. Some would call it the most significant public-relations campaign in history; it is, in fact, studied in many public relations classes as a prime example of how to conduct a successful campaign.
