Who was the president
Given the context of "increased spending," "war with Natives," and "wanted to remain independent," this could refer to several U.S. presidents throughout history. However, if we consider key events such as the westward expansion, conflicts with Native Americans, and fiscal policies, a couple of presidents come to mind:
-
Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) - His presidency is marked by the Indian Removal Act, which led to significant conflict with Native American nations, as well as increased federal spending on military and infrastructure as the U.S. expanded westward.
-
James K. Polk (1845-1849) - Often associated with the Mexican-American War and further expansionist policies, Polk's presidency involved significant military engagement and increased federal spending.
-
George Washington (1789-1797) - He dealt with conflicts involving Native Americans and emphasized maintaining independence from foreign influence while establishing the foundation for federal spending.
