rough draft andrew jackson's presidency
Answer:
More nearly than any of his predecessors, Andrew Jackson was elected by popular vote; as President he sought to act as the direct representative of the common man.
Born in a backwoods settlement in the Carolinas in 1767, he received sporadic education. But in his late teens he read law for about two years, and he became an outstanding young lawyer in Tennessee. Fiercely jealous of his honor, he engaged in brawls, and in a duel killed a man who cast an unjustified slur on his wife Rachel.
Jackson prospered sufficiently to buy slaves and to build a mansion, the Hermitage, near Nashville. He was the first man elected from Tennessee to the House of Representatives, and he served briefly in the Senate. A major general in the War of 1812, Jackson became a national hero when he defeated the British at New Orleans.
In 1824 some state political factions rallied around Jackson; by 1828 enough had joined “Old Hickory” to win numerous state elections and control of the Federal administration in Washington.
In his first Annual Message to Congress, Jackson recommended eliminating the Electoral College. He also tried to democratize Federal officeholding. Already state machines were being built on patronage, and a New York Senator openly proclaimed “that to the victors belong the spoils. . . . ”
Jackson took a milder view. Decrying officeholders who seemed to enjoy life tenure, he believed Government duties could be “so plain and simple” that offices should rotate among deserving applicants.
As national politics polarized around Jackson and his opposition, two parties grew out of the old Republican Party–the Democratic Republicans, or Democrats, adhering to Jackson; and the National Republicans, or Whigs, opposing him.
Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, and other Whig leaders proclaimed themselves defenders of popular liberties against the usurpation of Jackson. Hostile cartoonists portrayed him as King Andrew I.
Behind their accusations lay the fact that Jackson, unlike previous Presidents, did not defer to Congress in policy-making but used his power of the veto and his party leadership to assume command.
The greatest party battle centered around the Second Bank of the United States, a private corporation but virtually a Government-sponsored monopoly. When Jackson appeared hostile toward it, the Bank threw its power against him.
Clay and Webster, who had acted as attorneys for the Bank, led the fight for its recharter in Congress. “The bank,” Jackson told Martin Van Buren, “is trying to kill me, but I will kill it!” Jackson, in vetoing the recharter bill, charged the Bank with undue economic privilege.
His views won approval from the American electorate; in 1832 he polled more than 56 percent of the popular vote and almost five times as many electoral votes as Clay.
Jackson met head-on the challenge of John C. Calhoun, leader of forces trying to rid themselves of a high protective tariff.
When South Carolina undertook to nullify the tariff, Jackson ordered armed forces to Charleston and privately threatened to hang Calhoun. Violence seemed imminent until Clay negotiated a compromise: tariffs were lowered and South Carolina dropped nullification.
In January of 1832, while the President was dining with friends at the White House, someone whispered to him that the Senate had rejected the nomination of Martin Van Buren as Minister to England. Jackson jumped to his feet and exclaimed, “By the Eternal! I’ll smash them!” So he did. His favorite, Van Buren, became Vice President, and succeeded to the Presidency when “Old Hickory” retired to the Hermitage, where he died in June 1845.

How many times larger is a magnitude 4 than a magnitude 1 earthquake on the Richter scale?
The magnitude scale is logarithmic. That just means that if you add 1 to an earthquake's magnitude, you multiply the shaking by 10. An earthquake of magnitude 5 shakes 10 times as violently as an earthquake of magnitude 4; a magnitude-6 quake shakes 10 times as hard as a magnitude-5 quake; and so on
When comparing the amount of vibration caused by two earthquakes, multiply the magnitudes by 10 and divide by the product of the two (M1-M2).
What is an earthquake?An earthquake is referred to as a natural disaster caused by the movement and collision between two tectonic plates. when these tectonic plates move from their location they collide with each other causing earthquakes.
Earthquakes of magnitude 5.3 and 6.3 are considered to be moderate and strong, respectively. The scale's exponential foundation means that every whole number change in magnitude corresponds to a large increase in measured intensity as recorded on a seismogram.
No maximum or minimal values exist on the Richter scale. As a result of the scale's "logarithmic" nature, each point that is raised on it corresponds to a 10-fold rise in the magnitude of the earthquake.

List some of the new raw
materials that would change the economy of
Europe?
Answer:
Explanation:
A new raw materials strategy, proposed Thursday by the EU Commission, would reduce Europe's dependency on third countries, diversify supply and promote responsible sourcing worldwide.
The EU executive set out an Action Plan on Critical Raw Materials, the 2020 List of Critical Raw Materials and a foresight study on critical raw materials for strategic technologies and sectors from the 2030 and 2050 perspectives.
The List of Critical Raw Materials has been updated to reflect the changed economic importance and supply challenges based on their industrial application. It contains 30 critical raw materials. Lithium, seen as essential for a shift to e-mobility, has been added to the list for the first time.
"A secure and sustainable supply of raw materials is a prerequisite for a resilient economy," said EC vice-president Maros Sefcovic.: "For e-car batteries and energy storage alone, Europe will for instance need up to 18 times more lithium by 2030 and up to 60 times more by 2050."

How is the peace movement participating in the political process?!! ASPPP 61 POINTSSS!!!
Answer:
In the fall of 2010, 88-year-old Horst-Eberhard Richter was invited to present his newly published book, Moral in Zeiten der Krise in Berlin. The chairperson introduced him as the one who had given the peace movement its intellectual and analytical basis, and went on to say that Richter was credited with intellectually binding together psychoanalysis, perspectives on peace, and political protest. The author almost brusquely responded that this was not what it was all about. It was about a common future, social involvement, and a new sense that science carried a political responsibility. The peace movement was a social movement comprised of diverse individuals devoted to a common cause with a common collective identity and typically organized on democratic grassroots principles, with self-organization, through a Coordinating Committee. As such, it took a skeptical view of political leaders. However, notwithstanding its grassroots-inspired structures of decision-making, there were key players who succeeded in developing particularly high public profi les with regard to certain issues. For the purpose of introducing such “protagonists” of the peace movement and their celebrity status, the movement is divided here into the following social and political groups: Christians, politically independent participants.
