Andrew Jackson, U.S. President \n\nBorn: 15 March 1767 \nBirthplace: Waxhaw, South Carolina \nDied: 8 June 1845 \nBest Known As: President of the United States, 1829-37 \n\nA veteran of the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812, Andrew Jackson was popularly known as "Old Hickory" for his ruggedness. He gained national fame when he ran the British out of New Orleans in 1815, and he governed the Florida territory from 1821-23. He used his image as hero of the wild frontier to win the presidential elections of 1828 and then win re-election in 1832. Jackson, following the example of George Washington, chose not to seek a third term, and supported his vice president, Martin Van Buren for the presidency. Jackson was a staunch champion of states' rights against federalism, and his administration was marked by expansion in Texas, wars with the Indians and his rejection of the Bank of the United States.

I think he had a goat he liked to have sex with. He had dogs, cats, some abolished slaves, and parakeets.  He had a number of farm animals when he lived in the country.\n\nMany Southern states made it clear that if Lincoln was elected, they would secede (leave the Union). The South was against Lincoln because he opposed slavery. South Carolina was the first to secede in December 1860. Six other Southern states followed: Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas. After Lincoln's inauguration, Virginia, Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Carolina also left the Union. These states became known as the Confederacy. The secession of the Southern states led to the first shots of the Civil War when the Confederates seized Fort Sumter in South Carolina in April 1861. \n\nLincoln faced the greatest national crisis of any U.S. President. He hated war and the death and destruction it would bring. However, he accepted war as the only means of saving the Union. He warned the South in his Inaugural Address:\n\n"In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you... You have no oath registered in Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to preserve, protect and defend it." (Abraham Lincoln Web Site) \n\nAs the nation neared the third year of the bloody Civil War, President Lincoln issued the historic Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863. The proclamation declared "that all persons held as slaves" within the rebellious states "are, and henceforward shall be free." \n\nThis proclamation actually freed few people. It did not apply to slaves in the Border States of Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware; nor did it affect slaves in southern areas already under Union control. Naturally, the states that had seceded did not act on Lincoln's orders. But the proclamation showed Americans — and the world — that the war was being fought to end slavery. \n\nAlthough the Emancipation Proclamation did not immediately free a single slave, it changed the way black men were accepted during the war. Black men could join the Union Army and Navy. The liberated could become the liberators. By the end of the war, nearly 200,000 black soldiers and sailors fought for the Union and freedom. \n\nOn November 19, 1863, President Lincoln gave his famous Gettysburg Address in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. The speech dedicated the battlefield to the soldiers who had died there. The battle site became a military cemetery. Lincoln stated in his moving speech: "...we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." (The National Archives.)\n\nBush needs to learn from this guy although he already has goat. He should not give part of America to the arabs.

Zachary Taylor was the 12th president of the United States (1849-1850).\n hero of the war with Mexico in 1846, Zachary Taylor was the first U.S. President who was "regular army". Nicknamed "Old Rough and Ready" while in the army, Taylor was not so tough as president. He was nominated by the Whigs and elected because of his military reputation and southern roots, not because of his politics, whatever they may have been. He died after a five-day illness, having served just sixteen months in office. He was replaced by Millard Fillmore.

Lincoln took office in March of 1861. Back then , the new President took office in March of the year following the elections. Now it's January. \n  But even before he took office, South Carolina called a convention and delegates voted to secede from the Union. Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas followed. Then eventually also Virginia, Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Carolina. These eleven states eventually formed the Confederate States of America.\n  At a convention of the CSA the next month, they elected Jefferson Davis their President and went on to establish a loose confederation of states. Notably, they added to their laws that Slavery would be legal in all of these States.

When Congressman Thomas Hamer filed Grant's application to West Point, he thought Grant's first name was Ulysses and assumed the middle name would be Simpson, Grant's mother's maiden name. Grant had already been using the name Ulysses Hiram Grant, supposedly to avoid the H.U.G. monogram. Here's some references:\n\nUlysses spent his 16th year at a boarding school in Maysville, KY. By the time he returned home, his father had decided to send him to school at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, NY., and had secured an appointment there with the help of a political acquaintance. Ulysses had no interest whatsoever in a military life and had a great fear of flunking out. When he arrived at West Point, he was 17 years old, stood 5'1', and weighed 120 pounds. His name was changed forever when he enrolled. He tried to reverse his names and enroll as Ulysses Hiram Grant, but the appointment had already been made erroneously in the name of Ulysses S. Grant because the congressman who had appointed him thought his middle name was his mother's maiden name. Unable to correct the error, Grant took the new name as his own.\ncivilwar.bluegrass.net/Officer... hiramulyssesgrant.html\n\nUlysses arrived at West Point and discovered that the congressman who appointed him, in doubt about his name, had used his middle name first and had used his mother's maiden name (Simpson) for a middle name. Officers insisted that Ulysses S. Grant had been appointed to West Point, Ulysses Hiram Grant had not. In time, Ulysses accepted U. S. Grant as his true name, insisting that his middle initial stood for 'nothing.' His family and Ohio friends continued to call him {Ulysses;} the other cadets nicknamed him 'Uncle Sam' for his initials, soon shortened it to 'Sam.'\nwww.geocities.com/larone1/gran...
