Andrew Jackson was the 7th president of the United States. He was the founder of the Democrat party, and the first Democrat to become president. Before becoming president, he was a popular general who was famous for his victory at The Battle of New Orleans, which occurred during the war of 1812 (though technically the war was already over before the battle was fought). He survived duels, as well as an assassination attempt.
