what are the suggested thoughts and reply to this discussion below


Andrew Jackson did not pretend to like the Natives living within the states. He would have liked to remove all of them, but to move such a large population across federal land would have required congressional consent. Jackson thought that allowing Native Americans to settle in the US would give them easy access to slaughter near by Americans. The American settlers did not have any different of a perception of the Natives. Though most had never had an interaction with a native, they formed opinions based on papers from printing press such as the Penny Press. Another dislike was that because of the treaty's that had been established, the US could not expand anymore West. Georgia was especially volatile due to the federal government not upholding their end of an agreement. Georgia gave up their western land on the condition that the federal government would remove the Indians from the state. When Georgia's governor, George Michael Troup, was tired of waiting for the Natives and the federal government he sent land accessors to the Creeks' land. Though president Adams did not approve of the treatment, Jackson enabled Georgians to continue invading Indian lands and forcing US laws onto them. After invading Cherokee land, the Cherokee nation ended up taking Georgia to the Supreme Court. They Argued that they are not part of the US and should not have laws enforce upon them. The US Supreme Court agreed, but said that since they were a foreign nation, they could not bring it to the US Supreme Court. A year later, a Georgia resident went back to court for the Cherokee and pleaded their case. Jackson did not care and later would sign the Removal Act. This would provide an exchange of lands with Native Americans residing in an of the States or Territories, and their removal West of the Mississippi River. Unfortunately, not all Indians left and those that remained were forcible marched to Oklahoma in what was called the Trail of Tears. Many Native Americans that were apart of the Trail of Tears did not make it their due illness, hungry, and exhaustion. With the Native Americans moved to Oklahoma, land was up for grabs again for westward expansion.
