The second factor is perhaps the most obvious; a divided enemy. With their party voting three ways, the Whigs could not hope to mount a serious threat to the Presidency; and their plans to force a vote to the House would likely have gone against them anyway. While Harrison proclaimed his bravery and bravado, and Webster portrayed himself as an anti-Jacksonian; Van Buren discussed issues; including to the surprise of many, slavery.

In the end these three factors carried Van Buren over his opponents and into power. Van Buren now had to go about setting his cabinet. The first stop was his Vice President, who had lost votes in the nomination due to his relationship with a former slave. Richard Mentor Johnson rose to fame on a simple claim.

As a volunteer officer in the Kentucky Militia, Johnson claimed to have killed Tecumseh, the Indian commander. Johnson served in the US House for many years, chairing various minor committees and in general staying quiet. The Virginia born lawyer was positioning himself for a run at the White House in either or Van Buren also retained the staunch Jacksonian Levi Woodbury as Secretary of the Treasury, and encouraged Woodbury to continue his policies regarding the end of the National Bank.

Woodbury had also served as Secretary of the Navy under Jackson. Johnson 9th Vice President of the United States With his supporters in place, Van Buren set about completing what Jackson had started; immediately throwing his weight behind the Jackson executive order concerning Specie Circular, which forced land speculators to use hard currency not paper money in the west. While both acts were seen as necessary by many within the Jackson and Van Buren administration, they would both have long lasting consequences.

Where you can find whats gone on thus far Estonianzulu , Oct 22, Aug 1, Messages: Excellent to see you at it again Estonionzulu. So you've now set up the scene politically for America.

Time for the rest of us to sit back and enjoy. May 16, Messages: Indeed, it's wonderful to see you back in the saddle, as it were. A very thorough analysis of the election and now Van Buren must live up to the hype. By the way, looks like Johnson there needs a shave. Jun 24, Messages: An AAR by the well-reputed and well-recommended Estonianzulu, whose work I have not seen in some time! And you ditched Jackson -- one of my least favorite characters of history -- for Martin Van Buren -- one of my favorite!

I'll look forward to seeing how this develops. Rensslaer , Oct 22, Jan 26, Messages: You don't like Jackson!?

Caroline II - Hurricane Builders : Hurricane Builders

Jackson is t3h pWnz0rz!! Jingles , Oct 23, Mar 27, Messages: Intresting I can't wait to see how this devolops. What version are you using of Victoria? Estonianzulu , Oct 23, Victories against the weakened Mexican armies allowed Texas to overrun San Antonio. Despite the actions of his cabinet, Van Buren was slow to respond. So, rather than force the issue with Mexico, Van Buren; facing a split House, sat silent. He hoped that the issue would resolve itself, as the Mexican will to fight would eventually collapse.

He turned out to be very wrong. Although the Texans won a major victory in the north, the Mexicans were able to surround them by sending cavalry through Oklahoma. With the Northern forces surrounded, Texas was forced to pull back. By November 30th, , Harrisburg, Galveston, and Velaco had all been named capital of the Republic before being captured and destroyed by the oncoming Mexicans.

Soon the Mexicans had taken all of Texas but a strip of land reaching from the city of Austin named after a revolutionary leader who died during the invasion of San Antonio. So after months of negotiations between the US; whose reluctant president had now stepped in, Mexico and Texas, peace was reached. Mexico regained all of Texas but the narrow strip of land held by Texas in December of So, on March 2nd, , the Free City of Austin as it was official known became independent.

So it was the in two swift punches, the Van Buren administration had been dealt black-eyes. Van Buren needed to swiftly draw public attention away from the Mexican debacle and back home. To this effect he turned his focus, and that of his Attorney General, Felix Grundy his 2nd Attorney General , towards the states of Georgia and Tennessee. Despite court objections, concerns over the legality of the treaty and the objections of the Cherokee people, Van Buren sided with Georgia in removing the Indians.

The Ackbar Wars

This freed up land and gold mines to further excavation. The result was shocking. The Cherokee Indians were forced into Tennessee and then sent packing into Oklahoma. George Washington Getty was then ordered to take the US Dragoons, a military force that had been sent to enforce the treaty, and put down the revolt. Almost of the Indians were killed in the ensuing fight, about to US fire, the rest trampled to death by the terrorized Indians of the camp.

It was the last act of Indian resistance east of the Mississippi in US history. Some historians claim that the revolt in Knoxville was the final revolt, however this was in reality a riot involving many individuals; not just Indians, and was not an act of resistance. Getty helped turn attention away from an embarrassing situation in Mexico, a shaky economy, and a hostile House of Representatives as Van Buren approached the elections. Estonianzulu , Oct 24, So Van Buren has again proved himself to be a more capable assistant than he is leader. I am not entirely sure another 4 years of him would be a good thing.

You'd think so; but a voter is a fickle thing Bismark1 Thanks! I wanted to display that without broadcasting it at the top of my lungs. Ditched Jackson, but the public is still staunchly democrat. Jackson; truly a master of Leet speak. Whereas Jackson was firm and demanding; Van Buren was weak-willed and slow.

Rather than try to reverse his trend towards inactivity, Van Buren took the neutral stance. Though he cited Washington as his guide, his opponents in the Whig party called him a coward.

Old Kinderhook was attacked from all sides by Whigs, and even some Democrats for his lack of action. These attacks became especially prominent during two incidents with England. When Van Buren came to office he sought a quiet relationship with the empire that was the United Kingdom.

Luckily for Van Buren, England did not have time for dealings with America. In the throws of political crisis, England was in no attitude to deal with American problems. Thus when Van Buren did nothing to stop the attacks of Canadian rebels from within the US; the British likewise could sit silently. However, members of the Canadian militia, led by a British officer, invaded the US and burnt the USS Caroline, which had supplied weapons to the rebels.

Eventually Van Buren sent Winfield Scott and some men to the border to ensure no further incursions occurred.
