U.S. Senate: Impeachment Trial (Day 7)
The Senate impeachment trial of President Trump continues with opening arguments by the President’s defense team.
Impeachment trial of President Trump | Jan. 27, 2020 (FULL LIVE STREAM)
The House managers wrapped up their arguments against President Trump on Jan. 24. Trump’s team, including lawyers Pat Cipollone and Jay Sekulow, now has 24 hours to present their case. After Trump’s lawyers conclude their presentation, senators will have an opportunity to submit questions to both sides in writing. Following that, debate will turn to whether to call witnesses and subpoena documents.
Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives in December for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. Impeachment does not mean that the president has been removed from office. In the next phase, the Senate must hold a trial to make that determination. A Senate impeachment trial has happened only two other times in American history and once in the modern era. At the center of the Democrats’ case is that Trump sought to withhold military assistance and an Oval Office meeting until Ukraine announced investigations into former vice president Joe Biden and his son.

Presidential Dollar Coin: 2007 James Madison
The James Madison Presidential Dollar was released into circulation on November 15, 2007. This represented the fourth overall release in the Presidential Dollar coin series and the final coin released for the year 2007.
James Madison was an important figure in determining the course of the early United States. With Alexander Hamilton and John Jay, he wrote The Federalist Papers, which advocated the adoption of the Constitution. He also helped secure passage of The Bill of Rights. He served two terms as the 4th President of the United States from 1809 to 1817.
There was no official launch ceremony held for the James Madison Presidential Dollar. This is one of only a few situations where a launch ceremony was not organized by the United States Mint for a new release of the series.
The obverse of the James Madison Dollar features a portrait of the President and the reverse features a rendition of the Statue of Liberty. The obverse designer was Joel Iskowitz and the sculptor was Don Everhart. The reverse designer/sculptor was Don Everhart.
The obverse includes the inscriptions “James Madison,” “4th President,” and the years of his presidential term “1809-1817.” The reverse inscriptions include “United States of America,” and the denomination “$1.” The date and mint mark are located on the edge inscription of the coin along with the mottoes “In God We Trust” and “E Pluribus Unum.”
Circulating coin production for the James Madison Dollar showed another drop from the level for prior release. This continued the trend of lower overall mintages for each release of the Presidential Dollar coin series. The Philadelphia mint produced 84,560,000 coins and the Denver mint produced 87,780,000 coins.

19th Amendment: Women's Right to Vote (song)
AP Gov assignment
Song used: Sweet Dreams (are made of this) by Eurythmics
Lyrics:
The right to vote was ratified
on August 18, 1920
It doesn’t matter what sex you are
Even you women can vote as well
During the women’s suffrage
It came up in 1878
But 41 years later
It was submitted for ratification
It took another year
For the final vote to come
It was Tennessee’s ratification
Now it’s become the 19th amendment
It’s time to vote, go and vote, votin’ on
It’s time to vote, votin' on, go and vote, votin' on
It’s time to vote, votin' on, go and vote, votin' on
It’s time to vote, votin' on, go and vote
Now women have more power
Soon they will get more of their rights
Like having equal jobs as men
And having the same amount of pay
Now women have more respect
Women are treated more equally
Sexism has decreased significantly
Even though there are stereotypes
We girls take more education
Who am I to disagree
There’s a ratio in college of 40 to 60
More females have higher learning.
Started with the feminist movement
Led by Susan B. Anthony
And her NAWSA
At the Seneca Falls Convention
Almost a century later
There are so many more jobs for women
Soon we’ll have a female president
Empowerment continues on and on

Presidential Dollar Coin: 2008 Andrew Jackson
A citizen of Tennessee, Andrew Jackson was the first president elected from west of the Appalachian Mountains. As a boy, he fought in the Revolutionary War. Jackson gained national prominence as a hero of the War of 1812, and was nicknamed “Old Hickory” for his firm discipline as commander of his troops.
As president, Jackson worked to strengthen the executive branch and vetoed more bills than the six prior presidents combined. His renomination to a second term marked the first use of a national nominating convention to select a party’s candidate instead of a congressional caucus.
A strong proponent of federal supremacy over states’ rights, he took a forceful stance against the state of South Carolina’s attempt to nullify a federal tariff, declaring “Our federal Union: it must be preserved.”
President Jackson authorized three southern branches of the United States Mint in 1835 – New Orleans, Charlotte, and Dahlonega.
Coinage Legislation under President Andrew Jackson
Act of June 25, 1834 — This Act regulates the legal-tender value of certain foreign silver coins.

Act of January 18, 1837 — This Act:
sets forth the duties and increases the salaries of the officers of the United States Mint, with the Director earning $3,500 per year including travel expenses;

mandates that each coin struck at the United States Mint shall have on one side an impression emblematic of liberty with an inscription of the word “Liberty” and the year of the coinage; and that the reverse of gold and silver coins shall have the representation of an eagle with the inscription “United States of America.” The figure of the eagle shall be omitted from the reverse of the dime, half dime, cent, and half cent;
makes provisions for gold and silver bullion that is brought to the Mint for coinage.

Andrew Johnson United States Dollar Coin
The circulating coin series honoring the former Presidents of the United States entered its fifth year with the Andrew Johnson Presidential Dollar. He became the 17th President following the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.
Earlier in his life, Andrew Johnson had operated a tailor shop in Tennessee with his wife Eliza McCardle Johnson. He began to participate in debates and eventually entered politics, championing the common man and advocating a homestead bill. He would serve as a member of the House of Representatives and Senate. Later, he would be nominated for vice president, and assume the presidency following Lincoln’s death.
The obverse design of the Andrew Johnson Dollar featured a portrait designed and sculpted by Don Everhart. The required inscriptions surround the portrait indicating “Andrew Johnson”, “In God We Trust”, “17th President”, and “1865-1869”. On the reverse was a depiction of the Statue of Liberty. Also designed and sculpted by Everhart, it is intended to represent the concept of Liberty. Inscriptions read “United States of America” and “$1”. The edge of the coin contains the date, mint mark, and “E Pluribus Unum”.
American History - Part 052 - Jackson Heartbroken - Rachel Dies - Jackson Inauguration -
Welcome to THE MAKING OF A NATION -- American history in VOA Special English.
Last week in our series, we talked about the election of 1828. Andrew Jackson defeated President John Quincy Adams, after a campaign in which both sides made bitter and vicious charges. One of those charges was about Jackson's wife, Rachel.
His opponents accused him of taking her from another man. They said Andrew and Rachel were married before she was legally divorced from her first husband. This was true. But it was because her first husband said he had divorced her, when really he had not. Andrew and Rachel remarried -- legally this time -- after they learned of the situation.
Rachel Jackson was a kind and simple woman. The campaign charges hurt her deeply.
But then, tragedy intervened. Our story this week is told by Jack Weitzel and Stewart Spencer.
Then on December seventeenth, just a few days before the Jacksons were to leave for Washington, two doctors were rushed to the Jackson home outside Nashville. They found Rachel in great pain. She seemed to be suffering a heart attack. The doctors treated her, and for a time, she seemed to get better.
After a day or so, Rachel was able to sit up and talk with friends. She seemed cheerful. Jackson was at her side much of the time. On Sunday, Rachel sat up too long and began feeling worse. But the doctors said it was not serious, and they urged General Jackson to get some rest. He was to go to Nashville the next day.
After her husband went to sleep in the next room, Rachel had her servant help her to sit up again. Rachel's mind was troubled about the years ahead in Washington. I had rather be a door-keeper in the house of God, she said, than live in that palace in Washington.
A few minutes after ten that night, Rachel cried out and fell from her chair. The servants' screams awakened everyone. Jackson was the first to get to Rachel. He lifted her to the bed. He watched as the doctors bent over her. Jackson read in their eyes that life had left Rachel. Jackson could not believe it. He sat next to her, his head in his hands, his fingers through his gray hair.
To his friend, John Coffee, Jackson said: John, can you realize she is dead. I certainly cannot.
Rachel was buried two days later. Ten-thousand persons went to the Jackson home for the funeral. The Reverend William Hume spoke simply of Rachel Jackson's life. He talked of her kindness and humility. And he told how she had been hurt by the terrible charges made during the election campaign.
Jackson fought to hold back his tears. When the churchman finished speaking, those near Jackson heard him say: In the presence of this dear saint, I can and do forgive all my enemies. But those vile wretches who have lied about her, must look to God for mercy.
Jackson felt that Rachel's death was caused by the vicious charges made during the election campaign. He told a friend a few days later: May God almighty forgive her murderers as I know she would forgive them. I never can. Jackson left his home January eighteenth to begin the long trip to Washington. My Heart is nearly broken, he said. I try to lift my spirits, but cannot.
For the job of Secretary of State, Jackson chose Martin Van Buren of New York, a man of great political ability. He named a Pennsylvania businessman, Samuel Ingham, to be secretary of the treasury. John Berrien of Georgia was chosen to be attorney general. His Navy Secretary would be John Branch, a former senator and governor of North Carolina. For war secretary, Jackson chose an old friend, Senator John Eaton of Tennessee.
Andrew Jackson was sworn-in as president on March 4, 1829. The sky over Washington was cloudy on the fourth of March. But the clouds parted, and the sun shone through, as Jackson began the ride to the Capitol building. His cheering supporters saw this as a good sign. So many people crowded around the Capitol that Jackson had to climb a wall and enter from the back. He walked through the building and into the open area at the front where the ceremony would be held.
In the crowd was a newspaperman from Kentucky, Amos Kendall. It is a proud day for the people, wrote Kendall. General Jackson is their own president.
The crowds followed him all the way into the White House, where food and drink had been put out for a party.
Everyone tried to get in at once. Clothing was torn. Glasses and dishes were broken. Chairs and tables were damaged. Never had there been a party like this at the White House. Jackson stayed for a while. But the crush of people tired him, and he was able to leave. He spent the rest of the day in his hotel room in Alexandria.
The guests at the White House finally left after drinks were put on the table outside the building. Many of the people left through windows, because the doors were so crowded.
