The Most Terrifying President in American History

Which President should I make a documentary about next? Here is a song I created about Andrew Jackson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GG5Kj20tlX8 Anyway, I hope you all dug the video. You know what I dig? Using YouGov to make easy cash! Click my link: www.inflcr.co/SHIHs #YouGovPartner

The guns didn’t misfire, Andrew Jackson just scared the bullets.

You left out one of my favorite anecdotes about Jackson. At his funeral, his pet parrot kept cursing so much that the bird had to be removed. Where do you think it learned that much profanity?

Andrew Jackson is the definition of “Call an ambulance, but not for me.”

Andrew Jackson is the definition of "Man Literally Too Angry to Die".

Andrew Jackson sure had a strange way to make lifelong friends, first challenging them to duels and all.

True Andrew Jackson haters know that keeping him on the $20 bill is the best punishment to give him!

Andrew Jackson really deserves to have a Peaky Blinders style Netflix series. A wild, complicated, and paradoxical life. Both good and bad, but important non the less. Like him or hate him, he’s interesting.

The fact that he adopted the orphaned Creeks (Native Americans) as his children after fighting them in a war was rather extraordinary. I don't think I've ever heard a story like that

I like Davy Crockett as he was the only member of the Tennessee delegation to vote against the racist and cruel and even outright genocidal Indian Removal Act and opposed it viewing it as rightfully wicked and unjust. Cherokee chief John Ross sent Davy a letter in 1831 thanking him for voting against the racist bill.

Andrew Jackson is the human embodiment of the American myth. Very obscure moments, major flaws, but goddamn was he one tough bastard.

Dear Mr. Beat, I’m a fan of your Youtube channel and I like your videos. I’m not a US citizen and didn’t take any US history and geography classes before. Your channel is the best resource of mine to explore such huge amount of knowledge and really get to know the history, culture, and politics of this country. Recently I noticed that you have post several long and detailed videos to introduce the presidents of United States, just like this one, I’m wondering if you have plan to introduce the Lyndon B. Johnson, one of the most controversial president of US. There are lots of discussions around him in Internet, most of which are about the Vietnam War, and the Civil Rights. However, as an international student from China, I might have different perspective of LBJ. As you know, China has maybe the biggest government in the world and it really has rather high executive efficiency (of course lots of problems this big government produced). Similarly, LBJ administration, also made US both executive branch and legislative branch really high efficiency. While other Americans still focus on the Vietnam War he expanded, and the Civil Rights he contributed, I think the so many Acts passed during his administration are equally important. It’s even more important to people nowadays since it fundamentally changed people way of life in US. Those are Medicare, Medicaid, Consumer Product Safety, Immigration, Poverty Supporting, Education, etc. Any one of these milestone Acts can be seen as important political legacy of any US presidents, and LBJ just passed tens or twenties of them. Do you consider to make a video about this president, not only focus on his influence on Vietnam War and Civil right, but also discuss his legacy, his Acts, and how he deeply changes today’s US society? Thanks! Wish you have a great holiday season! All the best, Jianr

A flick of Andrew Jackson directed by Tarantino is one of my dream movies. Being true to the story but at the same time a bit exaggerated and modified since he's (Tarantino) known for doing that very well, for example, the myth of him being on more than 100 duels and some dark humor sparkled through out.

For as wild as Jackson was, there’s all those little things about him which astound me. So he was a slave owner, yet was the first military general to offer equal pay to all races. Hated native Americans, but he loved adoption and full blown adopted 3 of them. Settled tons of fights with the threat of death, yet became friends with people who survived his duels. All I can think after you explained all that was he was a walking irony. P.S. great job. Should’ve mentioned his swearing bird though lol

i’ve been watching this guy for a month now, and the amount of info i have collected from Mr. Beat alone is insane

How to become friends with Andrew Jackson. Step 1: *talk trash*. Step 2: get chalenged by andrew jackson. Step 3: refuse to fight. Step 4: become lifelong friends

This is FANTASTIC! Thanks for taking the time to make this.

You can say a lot of things about Jackson but two things stand out. He loved violence for its own sake. If you look at his life that was the one thing he never tried to avoid. And he correctly anticipated that the slavery issue was gonna blow up eventually.

Andrew Jackson was very much a mixed character in my opinion, his actions against native americans and his ownership of slaves is indefensible, but his rags-to-riches story and his weird ability to become friends with people he almost tried to kill is kind of admirable and something we almost never see today in politicians.

Thank you for the tremendous effort you put in your videos man, i spend my spare time watching your videos
