Andrew Jackson Stoned or maybe Bronzed



I took the above picture of Andrew Jackson in Jacksonville, Florida, in 2005. I suppose they have a statue of Andre because they named the city after him. And look! His horse stands on its hind legs just like Trigger!

Suppose Andrew and his horse had to pose for that statue and suppose the year was something like 1830.. Suppose his horse just stood a little straighter or maybe bucked "Old History" - history may have been changed forever in went into a different direction. No gold rush in North Georgia, and more importantly, no "Trail of Tears".
