2. History v. Jackson
Jackson
Indian Removal Act of 1830
Crash Course Jackson

3. Van Buren wins on the coattail of A-Jax.
Whigs are caught in a major sectional divide.

4. Texas is an independent republic
Interesting results between the popular and electoral vote

5. Harrison Dies
Whig agenda: 1.) New Bank of the U.S. and improve infrastructure. 2.) High tariffs
President Harrison dies from pneumonia.
Tyler vetoed the new bank charter (DRAMA!!) #Nohedidnt
Whigs kick Tyler out of their party (his Cabinet resigns)…Tyler does little as President
Lesson learned, don’t p-off your base.

6. Three Presidents
Van Buren: #8: Was Jackson’s VP; left to clean up Jackson’s economic mess (Canceling the charter of the Bank of The United States); dealt with 2 economic panics (1837 and 1839); chose a laissez faire approach.
Harrison: #9: anyone could have won against Van Buren (**sorry Marty, but it’s true); goals: 1.) recharter the bank 2.) build up infrastructure, 3.) higher tariffs…he dies (31 days)
Tyler: #10: First person to take over for a president that died…refuses to name a new VP; gets kicked out of his own party…**Can you say unpopular 
