He's the one that popularized this shit-show of carnival politics we have today by making it an entertainment-based fuckfest instead of focusing on policy.

In fairness, if he didn't do it someone would have eventually, but he did it so I blame him.
Jefferson did it first in his campaign against Adams. He hired reporters to run fake stories about him and worse.

just think, he was only 20 years from preventing the civil war....
i agree, he needs to be removed from US Currency. ignored the chain of command to seize FL, supported slavery, trail of tears, etc etc. oh yeah, he was the hero of New Orleans, credit where its due and all that. good job hiding in wagons while fighting those who used the conventional field tactics.
He was perhaps the greatest warlord in American history. I have mixed personal feelings but the man was Great.
