Use the passage below to respond to the question.

By the time Jackson entered the White House, white settlers in Georgia had been complaining for some time about the continued presence of Cherokee and Creek people on the lands they wished to inhabit. These white settlers were emboldened by the election of Jackson in 1828 and revoked the constitution of the Cherokee nation in Georgia, declaring that the Indians were subject to the laws of the state of Georgia.

Based on the passage, what inference can you make about the most likely focus of Jackson's presidency? Use an example from the text to support your answer.
