State of the Union speech –Andrew Jackson Source: Andrew Jackson, State of the Union speech. December 6, 1830. The present policy of the Government is but a continuation of the same progressive change by a milder process. The tribes which occupied the countries now constituting the Eastern States were annihilated or have melted away to make room for the whites. The waves of population and civilization are rolling to the westward, and we now propose to acquire the countries occupied by the red men of the South and West by a fair exchange, and, at the expense of the United States, to send them to a land where their existence may be prolonged and perhaps made perpetual. Doubtless it will be painful to leave the graves of their fathers; but what do they more than our ancestors did or than our children are now doing?.... Can it be cruel in this Government when, by events which it can not control, the Indian is made discontented in his ancient home to purchase his lands, to give him a new and extensive territory, to pay the expense of his removal, and support him a year in his new abode? How many thousands of our own people would gladly embrace the opportunity of removing to the West on such conditions! If the offers made to the Indians were extended to them, they would be hailed with gratitude and joy.... Rightly considered, the policy of the General Government toward the red man is not only liberal, but generous. He is unwilling to submit to the laws of the States and mingle with their population. To save him from this alternative, or perhaps utter annihilation, the General Government kindly offers him a new home, and proposes to pay the whole expense of his removal and settlement. It gives me pleasure to announce to Congress that the benevolent policy of the Government, steadily pursued for nearly 30 years, in relation to the removal of the Indians beyond the white settlements is approaching to a happy consummation. Two important tribes have accepted the provision made for their removal at the last session of Congress, and it is believed that their example will induce the remaining tribes also to seek the same obvious advantages.... Humanity has often wept over the fate of the aborigines of this country, and Philanthropy has been long busily employed in devising means to avert it, but its progress has never for a moment been arrested, and one by one have many powerful tribes disappeared from the earth. To follow to the tomb the last of his race and to tread on the graves of extinct nations excite melancholy reflections. But true philanthropy reconciles the mind to these vicissitudes as it does to the extinction of one generation to make room for another.... Philanthropy could not wish to see this continent restored to the condition in which it was found by our forefathers. What good man would prefer a country covered with forests and ranged by a few thousand savages to our extensive Republic, studded with cities, towns, and prosperous farms, embellished with all the improvements which art can devise or industry execute, occupied by more than 12;000;000 happy people, and filled with all the blessings of liberty, civilization, and religion?....

President Jackson was very anti-big business in the sense that he though it bred corruption. He thought the US was better off in a time before big business and big banks.

How did the Allies try to conceal the true location for the D-Day landings?

Answers

The Allies tried to conceal the true location for the D-Day landings by doing the following:

1) set up a huge dummy army with its own headquarters and equipments.
2) created fake documents where their intentions were documented and made sure that the Germans intercepted these documents.
3) passed on "secret" information to known German agents
4) the dummy army showed that they intended to attack the French seaport of Calais

These maneuvers were so successful that the Germans did not respond to the Allies landing on Normandy, thinking that these landings were intended to distract them.
 

Why was the Ninth Amendment written?to ensure individual freedoms
to promote independent choices
to protect personal properties
to define specific personal rights

Answers

The correct answer is A) to ensure individual freedoms.

The 9th amendment essentially states that any right not given specifically to the government is retained by the people. The implementation of this amendment was rooted in the fears of American citizens who worried about a tyrannical central government that would take away the rights of citizens. This paranoia about a strong central government really originated due to America's relationship with the British during the late 18th century.

This is why when America became independent, they tried to create a government structure in which the central government was extremely limited in its scope.

To ensure individual freedoms, that government can't take these rights away
