The President's murderer had carelessly left behind a satchel filled with various items. The items that were found inside the satchel are the only clues the police were able to recover from the scene of the crime. Many of the clues can be traced back to one man. One man, that had such a terrible hatred toward Jackson that it drove him to the most drastic and extreme of all acts, the act of cold blooded murder.

Now I will set the nation's ardent curiosity at ease and reveal the unknown assassin. This man is no other than the South Carolina senator, former Jackson Vice-President, John C. Calhoun. Calhoun was a strong supporter of the states' rights, he hated how Jackson mistreated the southern states. Calhoun was also angered by Jackson's intolerance to any notion of state power over federal power, for example the S

As I had mentioned earlier there was a satchel left behind at the scene of the crime with a plethora of items inside. After many days of continual scrutiny of these objects we have come to the irrefutable conclusion that these clues all point in one direction, and that is towards John C. Calhoun. For example, the Coffin Handbill, which was found inside the satchel, is an article that spoke of Jackson's misconduct in Florida, which was an issue that Calhoun had very strong negative feelings about, and which could have brought him to his ultimate decision. A copy of the Wilkins Bill, also known as the Force Bill, was found inside the satchel. Jackson passed this bill during the South Carolina crisis; the bill stated that in order to uphold federal law (Tariff of 1832), the army could use force to ensure its security. Most South Carolinians, especially Calhoun, felt Jackson was unlawfully using this bill to over step the bounds of his presidential power. This bill could have been used by Calhoun to remind him of the many tyrannies Jackson committed during his presidency, adding to the fury and hatred Calhoun felt toward Jackson. Another valid clue that was found inside the satchel was a copy of the Foote Resolution. The Resolution led to heated Webster-Hayne debates in the Senate, where the dispute over the north vs. south and nullification where thrown on the table. This document talked about an issue that both Calhoun and Jackson had very strong and conflicting feelings about. Also the bill of landings from the Cumberland should be taken into account. The Cumberland was the boat on which Jackson took to Washington, D.C. for his first inauguration. Someone who had this stub must have either been on the boat with Jackson or have been in close proximity of Jackson, a description that fits Calhoun nicely.

Jackson consulted with Calhoun about political decisions more and more rarely, and ma
