Andrew Jackson was elected and served as the seventh President of the United States from 1829–1837. His greatest fight was against a privately controlled banking corporation called the Second Bank of the United States.
The First Bank of the United States was established in 1791 and it existed until its charter expired in 1811.
The Second Bank of the United States, established in 1816, was a private corporation with public duties. The Second Bank was immensely profitable because it handled all fiscal transactions for the government and thus exerted massive power over the money system. President Jackson felt that this power was being used for the benefit of the wealthy classes and, in a democracy, economic opportunity should be equally available to all without restrictions.
In 1832, he successfully ran his campaign for a second term in office using the slogan:
"Jackson And No Bank!"
This was a reference to his plan to take control of the money system and use it for the benefit of the American people. In 1832, President Jackson used his veto when Congress tried to reauthorise the Charter of the Second Bank and the following year he started to move government deposits to more convenient places. This caused panic amongst his enemies and, in retaliation, they used their power to contract the money supply causing a severe depression. President Jackson knew what they were up to and later said:
"You are a den of thieves vipers, and I intend to rout you out, and by the Eternal God, I will rout you out."
On January 30th 1836, an attempt was made on his life when an assassin tried to shoot President Jackson, but miraculously both of his pistols misfired. This was the first ever assassination attempt on an American President and he later claimed to know who was responsible. The assassin, Richard Lawrence later boasted that he had been hired by powerful Europeans who promised to protect him if he was caught. Lawrence was later found not guilty for reasons of insanity
In 1836, after years of fighting against his enemies and their Second Bank, President Jackson finally won when the bank's charter was not renewed. It would not be until 1913 that a third central bank was established in America and the Federal Reserve still exists to this day.
President Jackson was a successful president who organised a series of initiatives designed to serve the social, political and economic needs of ordinary people. He managed to completely pay off of all federal debts for the first and only time in history but he was forced to fight constant battles against his enemies.

JFK and Executive Order 11110
The 40th anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy (often known as JFK) was commemorated on 22nd November 2013 and a large number of people throughout the world believe that he was the victim of a conspiracy.
On June 4th, 1963, President Kennedy signed a document, called Executive Order 11110 which gave him the power to create his own currency. He intended to use it for the benefit of ordinary people and he proceeded to issue more than $4000,000,000 of cash which was both interest free and debt free. It seems obvious that President Kennedy was seeking to undermine the Federal Reserve. Was he considering a full repeal of the Federal Reserve Act to allow Congress to create its own money?
President Kennedy was always a maverick and very keen to confront controversial issues. He was fully aware of how the Federal Reserve used its power against the interests of ordinary people and for the benefit of a few rich individuals. President Kennedy knew all about the problems faced by Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War, how corrupt banking corporations worked against him and how he was forced to print his own currency called Greenbacks.

A few months later, in November 1963 the world was shocked to hear the news of the President's assassination. As the days passed, there was frantic speculation about why anyone would commit such an appalling crime and it didn't take long for people with financial knowledge to put the two and two together.
The day day after the assassination, all the JFK issued bank notes were withdrawn from circulation. Did newly installed president, Lyndon B. Johnson, order this? Who was President Johnson afraid of? Was he part of the conspiracy? Either way, the money issued by JFK was destroyed and ordinary American people were not informed.
JFK was the first President since Abraham Lincoln with the courage to stand up to the large banking corporations and they were both assassinated. Is this a coincidence?
The first ever assassination attempt on a US President was on President Andrew Jackson in 1836. It was unsuccessful but he was another Presidential opponent of the large banking corporations. Is this a coincidence too?
Why would anybody assassinate a President? Why must everything be covered up?
What are they trying to hide?
