How did Andrew Jackson help America?

He defined the modern notion of the President as the representative of the people, rather that as a servant of the Congress.

He repaid the national debt and oversaw what was probably the most honest government in the history of the US.

He made trade treaties with several foreign countries.

He ended forever the idea of a national bank that could loan out federal money to the people it favored and thereby gain political influence.

He added the Spanish territory of Florida to the US and paved the way for the annexation of Texas.

He ended forever any Indian threats in the Eastern US.

He proved to European countries that the US had to be treated with respect and had a navy that could back up diplomacy.
