Andrew Jackson was the first president to forcefully assert the idea that the president rather than Congress should take the lead on national policy issues. the United States should align itself with France rather than Britain. the Congress needed to take responsibility for carrying out foreign policy. the United States should align itself with Britain rather than France.

True. As a former US Lawyer, Senator and the 7th President of the United States of America, Andrew JAckson championed this idea of the president bieng incharge of the national policy issues rather than leaving it in the hand of the Congress.

He is known as the peoples president due to the series of policies he initiated like the support of individual liberty, the policy that caused the forced migration of the native Americans etc.

His use of the veto power is also another way which he demonstrated the idea that the president rather than congress should take the lead in national policy issues. A typical example is the bill on the bill through Congress to re-charter the second bank of America (institution) which he vetoed (the rejection of the bill) because it encourages the advancement of the few individual at the expense of other citizens.
