Talk:Andrew Jackson (view source)
Revision as of 06:11, February 21, 2019
, 06:11, February 21, 2019→"My Sovereign, the People"
True, Trump identifies with Jackson. But this more on a personal level, as this article says, "as a man of action not of words." Politically, Trump identifies with Jackson's willingness to take on the Central Bank of his day and the powerful old corrupt [[aristocracy]] (heirs of the greedy rich, privileged class of the Founding Fathers} who taxed the poor, the oppressed, the downtrodden, while holding on to their [[Slave Power]].

:Popular sovereignty, born of the enlightenment as CP's article explains, likewise is anti-church, which lends more weight to my argument above that the 1867 citation claiming Jackson was a devout Presbyterian is KKK propaganda and should be removed.

:As far as the notion of popular sovereignty goes, when you remove God from the equation - as the "[[enlightenment]]" did - it opens the door to all sorts of abuses, such as the Trail of Tears, the KKK, or the Holocaust. Lincoln's view was based on the existence of a just God. This is a key point lost as [[socialist]]s have tried to hi-jack Lincoln to justify all sorts of politically correct nonsense.
