As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.....
The election of 1830 AD in the year of our Lord, was a most interesting one, as the basic government of these United States formed under more of a Monarchical Dictator in one man was known as "the government", in his name being Andrew Jackson.
Andrew Jackson was a democrat and head of the mob literally as Thomas Jefferson was in calling themselves "republicans" in desiring the will of the people, but never operating in the least in any form of democratic rights, as it was might makes right and rule is the tool.
"Might makes right and rule is the tool."

I have been an admirer of Andrew Jackson as he was a fire brand of the wilderness and only his spirit could dominate wild men to his call. Jackson was not wrong in destroying the central bank in America, but he was wrong in handing the US Treasury over to local branches which abused the money and created the first great depression in America.
The subject of this discourse is another Tennessean by the name of David Crockett, who most seem to forget was an elected legislator in state house and Congress in Washington City as it was called then in the District of Columbia.
For those who remember Ronald Reagan, the fervor for Andrew Jackson in America was twice that. He was called the government literally and stated he made only two mistakes and that was not shooting his own Vice President and the Speaker of the House.
If someone was from the canebreaks, elected by the people, that someone was supposed to be a dog on a leash for anything Andrew Jackson put to Congress. That is what David Crockett wrote of and was infuriated over, as Representative Crockett was an American, and he was no more going to be told what to do in Washington, than in the Creek War when General Jackson lined up his militia and told the boys to shoot the Crockett boys who were going home to get fresh horses, fed and clothed for winter campaign.
The Crockett group cocked their rifles when Jackson's men cocked theirs and moved ahead. No one fired, but Jackson steamed at them that he had never seen the like in volunteers fighting a war when it suited them.
All the same Davy Crockett went home, got food, clothes and a fresh horse and back to the war they came, and still were almost starved to death.
There were two bills that came to Congress which were Jackson signatures. The one was the Bank Bill. The second was the Indian Bill. You will know the second in the legislation which removed the Cherokee Indians beyond the Mississippi River in the infamous trail of tears propaganda.
I have explained this that the Government gave the Indians clothing, shelter, food etc... for the trip, but an Indian even "civilized" was a wild creature like a bird, and if you put a wild bird in a cage it will die with all it's needs met as they give up. That is what killed the Cherokee was they could not muster the will to overcome the idea to live beyond their nativity.
David Crockett opposed the Indian Bill. He deemed it something evil and something he would not have to answer for in Judgment. The reality of this situation was that from 1750 onward, the Americans in the interior had been the victims of genocide instigated by European empires using Indian empires. It was heinous warfare of the worst kind of terrorism.
The Cherokee were a part in this, and then became civilized taking up farms and building homes as the government advocated.
The Creek War which started with a slaughter of Americans in men, women and children in the South at a "fort" which was a farming enclosure, by the Creek people, was the one which Jackson and Crockett fought, against Indians and with Indian allies.
The sentiments of people who had been murdered after trusting Indians was something which was a fact. Davy Crockett s own grandparents had been slaughtered by Indians. He though, and I believe it had to do with the reality that Andrew Jackson put on the bulge too much in ordering around other frontiersmen like Crockett, came out against Andrew Jackson in the Indian removal, when the majority of Americans wanted the threat removed forever.
For that David Crockett was smeared, tarred and feathered by the Jacksonites. When he returned to Tennessee, he found every paper was printing lies about him, had dug up his voting record and stating by missed votes he had "stolen" several hundred dollars in not being around to vote, and then a group of lawyers held meetings about the district saying that "Crockett would be there to defend his vote against Jackson" and they never told Davy Crockett about the gatherings.
The crowds would be told Crockett was a coward for not showing, and then they would get the spin against him.
David Crockett was defeated on this, and then in the next election, he had his district gerrymandered in the worst way possible, but he still ran, and as only Davy Crockett could do, he won the election and published this as he was hoping to run for President to replace Andrew Jackson:
"I am now here in Congress, this 28th day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and thirty-four; and that, what is more agreeable to my feelings as a freeman, I am at liberty to vote as my conscience and judgment dictates to be right, without the yoke of any party on me, or the driver at my heels, with his whip in hand, commanding me to ge-wo-haw, just at his pleasure.
Look at my arms, you will find no party hand-cuff on them! Look at my neck, you will not find there any collar, with the engraving MY DOG.
Andrew Jackson.
But you will find me standing up to my rack, as the people's faithful representative, and the public's most obedient, very humble servant,"
DAVID CROCKETT.

There are not any Davy Crocketts in the 21st century in Congress as in the Age of Obama, they are all the regime's dogs on the leash. Not one serves America nor Americans, no more than the press serves anything but the tools of intrigue conditioning the peoples minds that a gulag liberty like life in a grave is just a bed of soil to rest in.
David Crockett never became President, but was turned out of politics. It is a logical conclusion that he ended up at the Alamo to become a Hero so large on the Jackson scale that he would be swept into office, and be the President which Andrew Jackson was not.
Davy Crockett was poor and uneducated. All he knew as God, family and keeping your word. That is why he was a man who could not be bullied nor blackmailed. He did what was right and when the mob abandoned him for the lies, he waited for a few years until they were revealed what dupes they were.
This historical example is placed here to educate people in startling them that there were once Americans in Congress who did the right thing standing against American tyranny.
