- btilly 11y agoAndrew Jackson is also the guy who thought it fine to ignore the Supreme Court's ruling that under established treaty the Cherokee owned their land, sent the US Army in to evict them, and wound up killing a third of their population. I'm not exactly a fan of his public policy positions.
- coherentpony 11y agoSure, but it's possible to disagree with someone's opinions or policies on one topic and laud them on another.
- btilly 11y agoThat is true. However in that case, you should agree and disagree on the positions based on the merits of the arguments for the position, and not the authority of the person. Therefore I may happen to agree with Andrew Jackson on some things, but appealing to Andrew Jackson as an argument for those things is still a bad argument.

- btilly 11y agoYeah, I don't subscribe to that conspiracy theory.
