Children	Andrew Jackson, Jr. (Adopted son) (1810-18??)	- General Jackson is the majority's slave; he yields to its intentions, desires, and half-revealed instincts, or rather he anticipates and forestalls them. - Alexis de Tocqueville, 1836 - The wisdom of man never yet contrived a system of taxation that would operate with perfect equality - Andrew Jackson - I feel much alarmed at the prospect of seeing General Jackson President. He is one of the most unfit men I know of for such a place. He has had very little respect for laws and constitutions, and is, in fact, an able military chief. His passions are terrible. - Thomas Jefferson, 1824 - Americans are not a perfect people, but we are called to a perfect mission. - Andrew Jackson
