On June 8, 1845, Andrew Jackson - one of America’s most controversial Presidents - passed away. On the 180th anniversary of his death, the West German Broadcasting Service (WDR5) aired a radio show, in which Professor Trautsch analyzes the roots of Jackson’s populism and draws parallels between America’s seventh and current President.
