64. 17th President, Andrew Johnson The presidential Pet Museum presents the biographyof the 17th us president andrew johnson. http://www.presidentialpetmuseum.com/presidents/17AJ.htm

President Andrew Johnson Served 1865-1869 (became President upon the death of Lincoln) Andrew Johnson was born December 29, 1808, in Raleigh, North Carolina. Johnson grew up in poverty. He was apprenticed to a tailor as a boy, but ran away. He opened a tailor shop in Greeneville, Tennessee, and married Eliza McCardle on May 17, 1827, and had five children. Johnson never had a single day of formal schooling, but his wife taught him to read and write. Like Millard Fillmore, once Johnson learned to read, he studied and became a lawyer. Moving to Tennessee, he pursued politics and was elected to Congress and then the Senate. Alone among all Southern Senators, he remained in the Senate when his state seceded. Although Johnson was from the Democratic Party, in 1864, Lincoln chose Johnson as his running mate under the National Union Party banner. When Lincoln died April 15, 1865, Johnson became president. He did not have a Vice President. Johnson had the job of trying to heal the country after the Civil War left the country in ruins. As a Southerner who sided with the North, he had many political enemies both outside and within his own government. He was a great speaker, but many of his opponents worked against him during those turbulent times. Johnson did not want retribution against the South, but many in his government wanted to punish the South for secession and the war. Johnson was also unpopular for his purchase of Alaska from Russia for $7.2 million dollars, negotiated by Secretary of State William Seward. People called the Alaska Purchase "Seward's Folly."

66. Impeachment 1868/1999 back at the only other impeachment trial in us history—that of andrew johnson in1868 Professor of History at Columbia University and president elect of http://historymatters.gmu.edu/d/176/

Impeachment 1868/1999 by Eric Foner Once before in American history, during the turbulent era of Reconstruction that followed the Civil War, a president was impeached by the House of Representatives and tried before the Senate. This was Andrew Johnson, like Clinton a Southerner who had alienated a majority of Republicans in Congress. There, however, similarities between the two impeachments begin and end. Johnson’s Reconstruction policy is often described as one of "leniency" toward the South. It was lenient enough to white Southerners, whom Johnson quickly restored to control over local affairs. To the four million emancipated slaves, however, Johnson’s lily-white plan of Reconstruction was extremely punitive. Johnson ordered black families evicted from land on which they had been settled by the U. S. army, and through the notorious Black Codes, the southern governments he created attempted to reduce blacks back to the condition of dependent plantation laborers. Between 1865 and 1867, Northern Republicans slowly became convinced that Reconstruction must recognize blacks as American citizens entitled to equality before the law and, for men, the right to vote. Johnson, a thoroughgoing racist, opposed these policies. The 1866 Congressional elections, a sweeping victory for the Republicans, demonstrated that unlike Clinton, Johnson had little popular support. Nonetheless, Johnson attempted to use the patronage and his command of the army to obstruct Congressional policies.

INUSA Tour Guide Andrew Johnson National Historic Site Greeneville, Tennessee When 17 year old Andrew Johnson came to Greeneville from Raleigh, NC in 1826, little did he imagine that his industrious work as a tailor, his ardent desire for further education, and his keen interest in the civil affairs of his fellow men would lead him from his simple tailor's shop in Tennessee to the Presidency of the United States. His roll in local and state government served well to prepare him for the critical issues he would face in his future career. He would be the only southern Senator to remain in Congress at the outbreak of the Civil War. President Lincoln would appoint him to be Military Governor of Tennessee and later select him as his running mate in 1864. After assuming the presidency, he risked removal from office in order to protect the human rights of citizens of the defeated states. He remains the only former President to return and serve in the US Senate. Today in Greeneville you may visit among the surroundings that were so very much a part of his life. The Andrew Johnson National Historic Site, located in downtown Greeneville, includes 3 separate units: The Visitor Center Complex which includes Johnson's tailor shop, museum, restrooms, park headquarters, and the 1830's Andrew Johnson House;

FRtR Biographies Salmon Portland Chase A Biography 1806-1873 Salmon Portland Chase (1808-1873) Impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson Previous Chapter Next Chapter Quote Fourth Circuit Court of Virginia was the jurisdiction Andrew Johnson wanted for the treason trial of Confederate President Jefferson Davis Military officials wanted to try him in their courts. The authorities debated over the jurisdiction for two years while Davis was imprisoned. Johnson knew a military trial would make Davis a martyr. Chase refused to hear cases in the Virginia Circuit while the State was still under the military government and not until the writ of habeas corpus was restored. When Chase finally sat at the Davis trial in November 1868 he approved Davis' lawyer's argument that the 14th Amendment that had recently gone into effect applied to Davis. In December Johnson issued a general amnesty. At the next session of circuit court, Chase discharged Davis on the grounds he was included in the pardon and could not be tried ex post facto. Impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson At the only impeachment trial of a president in history, the Impeachment of Andrew Johnson for High Crimes and misdemeanors, (1868), Chase refused to let the Senate turn the hearings into a mockery of the law when he faced an angry mob of radical senators who wanted to limit the Chief Justice's power in the trial. Chase insisted and by cleverly out maneuvering the senators, he insured that the trial would be conducted with impartially and with the proper character of judicial process assuring the President a fair trial. The Senate knew if Chase didn't have his way, the Chief Justice could refuse to preside over the trial thereby violating the Constitution.
