PRESIDENTIAL HIGHLIGHTS


Andrew Jackson Once Paid Off USA National Debt
(the only President in U.S. History to do this before or after)





On 1/8/1835, President Andrew Jackson became the only president to pay off the entire U.S. national debt (Church, Guardians of the Grail, p. 179). With a ton of courage, and much opposition, Jackson freed America from the control of the bankers. Their influence was enormous throughout the U.S. government including the U.S. Congress.
For a short time during this period, the U.S. actually had a national surplus (not a budget surplus, but an actual surplus). Unfortunately, that was quickly allowed to slip away, and it has never happened again. With everyone's help, we can have a national surplus again and the freedoms that come with that.
