Summary

"State of the Union Addresses" by Andrew Jackson is a collection of historical speeches from his time as president in the 1800s, where he expresses thanks for the positive state of the country while addressing a range of topics from dealing with other countries to the way the President is elected. Jackson talked about keeping things peaceful and making progress by working out problems with countries like England, France, and Spain. He also thought it was important to change the Constitution to make the election process for President and Vice-President better. The main idea running through all of his speeches is his desire for a government that truly represents what the people want.
