Andrew Jackson believed in the rights of the common man because he came from humble beginnings and distrusted the vested institutions of power. The first American president born to immigrant parents, Jackson was the embodiment of the new blood that infused the American spirit in the early 19th century.

Jackson cannot be described in one-dimensional terms because there were layers to the Tennessee frontier president.

Created to root out and punish heretics within the Catholic faith, the Inquisition became an institution that would carve its name into history.
