Understanding of the Comman Man

Andrew Jackson started out as a everyday person. Growing up in the 1800s he didn't have the rich and famous life as many previous candidates did. His mother died when he was 14 and him and his brother caught small pox as young children. Back then, it was very rare to be able to survive that kind of devastating disease. Jackson's brother Robert did die but Andrew survived. He had to work at a very young age and so now he understands the viewpoints of everyone in the country.
