        Andrew Jackson is still an important American figure and a product of his time, much like the Founding Fathers

        Context is that support for slavery wasn't universal- they were on the wrong side of history on this.

        Let's not forget Trail of Tears & theft of 25 million acres of land from Native peoples. Jackson was no hero.
