Now Richard, you know that Mr. Jackson respected those with the nerve to disagree with him!

The arsenal was actually proposed and in the works prior to Jackson's term.

I suggest, Dale, that were Old Hickory still alive you would not dare
tell HIM that! <G>

Who was President of the United States in part of 1829; all of 1830,
1831, 1832, 1833, 1834, 1835, and 1836; and part of 1837?

... and when was the arsenal built?

Florida seems to have been pretty much run by and for the Andrew Jackson
friends fun club in that era... I believe that Jackson invented it, and
it was called "the spoils system" (to the victors go the spoils).

I rest my case.
