Who Was Andrew Jackson A Hero?

Many people would classify Andrew Jackson as one of the worst presidents in American history and same may even call him a villain. But I’m here to tell you why he may in fact be a hero. Andrew Jackson was a hero because he was a common man, had the Nullification Crisis, and expanded suffrage. Andrew Jackson was a common man, which pretty much means that he like everyone else. He was born in a log cabin, which was very common back then, to a poor family. He was self made man that was able to earn a great amount of money without anybodies help which attracted much attention from others. He was also considered a war hero since he had participated in many battles which ended in a success. The Nullification Crisis also know as the Tariff
of Abomination was started when imported foreign goods got taxed to protect the U.S. businesses. And even though the North adored the tariffs, the South did not, because they had to pay more money. This caused much commotion that caught the attention of the government, specifically Andrew Jackson. So, when Jackson heard that the South, specifically South Carolina wanted to secede, he immediately put everything in place by making them follow the federal government laws. This showed that they had a strong government. Jackson was the first president to expand suffrage. At first you had to own land to be able to vote. Now when Jackson expanded the suffrage, men did not have to own anymore meaning that pretty much 50% more people were blue to vote. Andrew Jackson set motion to the expansion of suffrage. Overall I know Jackson might've done some bad things but he also did many good things like the Nullification Crisis and expanded suffrage. He was also a common man that understood other people's troubles. He made our government better and stronger. That's why Andrew Jackson is a hero.
