Example Question #6 : Us History
Who was the first active president to publicly espouse views in line with the idea of Manifest Destiny?
Possible Answers:
Martin Van Buren
John Quincy Adams
George Washington
Andrew Jackson
Correct answer:
Andrew Jackson
Explanation:
Andrew Jackson, as evidenced by his horrifying Indian Removal Policy, was an early and enthusiastic supporter of the (highly ontologically and ethically suspect) doctrine of Manifest Destiny. Van Buren succeeded Jackson as president, and John Quincy Adams preceded him. The notion of Manifest Destiny had not come into the popular imagination during Washington's presidency.
