Hindsight is of course 20-20, and if one knew then what is now known of Jackson's policy toward the Indians, he would not have received my vote. However, if I were a U. S. citizen of voting age in 1828 with no knowledge of Jackson than was then available, I not only would have voted for him, I would have enthusiastically supported his election.
