John Quincy Adams's Presidency

The first five presidents of the United States impacted the United States greatly and their names were George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and James Monroe. The president I think that impacted the U.S the most was George Washington who was in office for eight years (1789-1797). George Washington who was the commander in chief and led the army in the Revolutionary War and gained freedom from Great Britain at that time there was thirteen colonies in the United States. In 1783 George Washington signed a peace treaty with Great Britain. John Adams which was the second president to be elected who was vice president at first for eight years (1789-1796) soon became president for four years (1797-1801). John Adams strengthened the central government by making the army stronger and he signed a law which is called the “Act for the Sick” which let government marine hospital service. Thomas Jefferson which was the third president was one of the more important presidents for the United States, he was one of the authors of the Declaration of Independence and he also organized the Louisiana Purchase which doubled the country known as the United States. James Madison Jr. known as the fourth president promoted the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights. James Monroe which was the fifth president of the United States who was in office for eight years (1817-1825) and was the last president that was in the Virginia Dynasty and the Republican Generation.

An ardent patriot of the new state who sacrificed his impeccable stature for the sake of love, John Quincy Adams was the Democratic- Republican president of the United States of America. The 6th president was born in 1767 at Massachusetts in a throng of grandeur to one of the founding fathers and President, John Adams and his beloved cardinal mother Abigail Adams. John Quincy graduated from Harvard as a Lawyer but decided to pursue his career in Foreign Service as a young diplomat. After dozens of years in Politics, John Quincy became the President but unlike any other election, was elected by the House of Representatives. Following the footsteps of his father, he lost reelection and was thus limited to serving only one term. John Quincy used

In my opinion, John Adams was one of the most underrated President’s. Adams served as the second President of the United States of America. He was a representative of of the Federalist party. His party also included people like Alexander Hamilton. John Adams has been seen as taken a timid approach to his Presidency, but he was also seen as taking an arrogant approach. In researching Adams, I read into both sides of the argument historians presented on him, but I still believe that Adam’s work he completed in office should be seen as a positive.

John Adams was the second U.S. president. He had a political record before presidency as well. He also served as vice president. He only served one term but was a “good” president. In this report I think that John Adams will be a good president and have a good reputation.

Samuel Adams, one of our founding fathers, signee of the the Declaration of independence, and helper of the Boston tea. Samuel is a very respected, honored, and patriotic man in US history.

Presidency is one of the toughest jobs in world. As a president one has to be mindful of everyone's needs, and try to accommodate them as best as possible. Not only are they under constant scrutiny with their country, they are also watched by the people of power in other countries. Having the weight of the world is enough to drive any sane person mad. That it is why when reflecting on John Adams presidency, thinking about some of the duties and hardships that come with being the president, the biases that one may have in the beginning may fade to the background.

From 1776 onwards, the United States of America had a strong foundation for government and tradition. Great men such as the Founding Fathers established these foundations for incoming future generations. One of these great men included John Adams. As an American colonist, as a voice of the American Revolution, as a Founding Father and as second President of the United States, John Adams was one of the most influential men in U.S history.

John Quincy Adams was the 6th president and his vice president was John C. Calhoun. He was elected House of Representation in 1830. Also he was a member of the Democratic-Republic. John Quincy Adams was a Secretary of State. John Quincy Adams was the most politically active post- presidencies of any U.S. president. Also he severed nine consecutive terms in the House of Representatives, earning the nickname “Old Man Eloquent.”

John Quincy Adams entered the administration with a few weakening political liabilities, including John Quincy Adams himself. He had the personality of his dad: Aloof, stiff-necked and brutally free in his feelings. As president, John Quincy neglected to add to the political connections required—even among individuals from his own gathering—to impact critical change. It didn't help that his political rivals were situated on making him an one-term president.

Adams presidential term started March 4,1825 and ended March 4,1829. Although many believed John Quincy Adams has failed as a president and was better at politics, he did play a huge role in the Election of 1824. During the election Clay had offered Jackson a deal saying that he would support him so long as Jackson appoints him to secretary of state when he wins. However, when Jackson turns down Clay's deal Clay turns to Adams and makes the same offer, only difference is that Adams accepts Clay's bargain. No Presidential candidate got a majority of electoral votes. When the House of Representatives elected John Quincy Adams although Jackson had received more popular votes Jackson knew something wasn't right. Soon after Adams appointed Clay as his Secretary of state Jackson realized what happened and claimed “Corrupt Bargain.” John Quincy Adams as president was horrible, he was stubborn , unresponsive , and very independent like his father. Adams failed to create political relations that were needed to help get a significant amount of change, he even failed to create relations with his OWN political party. In the election of 1828 Jackson beat Adams by a fairly large margin. Infuriated by his loss in the election Adams immediately left Washington without appearing at Jackson's

During the last days of the John Adams Presidency he nominated William Marbury for a position for Justice of the Peace. Everything from paperwork and all the necessary procedures were set for the appointment of William Marbury. But President Adam’s secretary, John Marshall did not deliver the commission in time before Thomas Jefferson became president. During Jefferson Presidency he ordered his secretary James Madison not to deliver the commissions and those men whose commissions were not delivered ended up suing Madison.

This lack of effort by James Monroe then lead to the presidency of John Quincy Adams. Adams was an interesting man just like his father. They favored each other in many ways: quirky, intelligent, and the

Andrew Jackson, the seventh president of the United States, was an intriguing politician that differed from previous presidents in many ways. The presidency of Jackson represented a major shift in American politics. These ways include his willingness to represent the common man, his opposition of the national bank, his focus on removing American Indians from southern states, his independence in office, and his long lasting legacy in American History.

Henry Clay was a lawyer and a planter, a statesman, and was Speaker for the House of representatives. He was born on April 12, 1777 and died on June 29, 1852. Henry Clay ran for president three times and was also chief architect of the Compromise of 1850. The compromise of 1850 was a proposal of five separate bills passed by Congress which defused a four year political confrontation between the slaves and free states.
