National Bank: 3/16/11
What was the purpose of the bank? It was to regulate the state banks because there were so many and the First bank is barely in existence anymore.

Why did Jackson oppose the Second Bank of the United States? Him and other Americans didn't feel that the constitution even gave Congress the right to builld it.

Do you favor giving more power to the states or to the federal government? Why? I think the federal government because they can take care of all of the states as a whole better than the individual states themselves.

What examples can you think of that involve the concept of states' rights? What can states control that the federal government does not? - marriage rights - the age of drivers lisence - drinking age - smoking/no smoking - education

He had served in the Revolutionary War and was involved with many government jobs for example the Houae of Representatives and the Senate.
 * 1.** What path led to Andrew Jackson's presidency?

Since they **had** to take all the Native Americans out of their homes they had to walk a long journey. The Cherokees that moved lost 4,000 people out of the 16,000 because of hunger, disease, exposure, and bandits.
 * 2.** How did the Indian Removal Act lead to the Trail of Tears?

It was because some people thought that it went against the Constitution.
 * 3.** Why was the National Bank a source of controversy?

It led to huge arguements on whether the government should have power.
 * 4.** How did a conflict over the issue of states' rights lead to a crisis?

John Calhoun (Vice President) - states that any state could nulify or reject any law passed by Congress (i.e. tariff law) that the state thought violated the constitution or was not in best interests or state

Nullification theory: concept that states have the right to reject federal law

There are processed foods like the packaged ones people eat today, most manufactured toys such as barbie, and exported clothing probably needs boats if they're going to be shipped across the world.
