- You know, the Bush family isn't the only one to have a father-son pair in office. The Adams family did it first! Adams Jr. was a busy bee even before taking office. And he also went back to Congress even after his presidency! What an odd duck, huh? Let's learn more about the fellow.

There’s something cool about John Adams and John Quincy both being presidents “so close” in term number
I mean George H W Bush was 41 and George W Bush was 43
Technically, now, JQA is one of FIVE presidents who didn't attend his successor's inauguration (6:43 - Add Trump (45th)).
Just to clarify, those are the ones that chose not to attend. 9 other presidents didn't have a choice.
Thank you for this wonderful playlist
Thanks for this terrific, honest, and well-researched mini bio of one of the greatest Americans of all time.
I am a huge fan of John Q Adams. He was such a progressive thinker! It is wonderful hearing someone else appreciate him as he should be instead of pushed aside for Jackson.
Jackson
Progressive thinker my ass. JQA was a conservative. Russell Kirk.
Just learned about this president, my oldest sons are related, as I learned doing their genealogy yrs ago. One son is finally getting interested in learning more. Thanks
John Q Adams was born and groomed to be a President. His father was tough on him and his experience made him uniquely qualified for the office.
John Quincy Adams is one of my favorite presidents because he had the highest IQ of any president at 169
I’m not even American and I was bored so I googled random US presidents but gotta say, this is kinda interesting... Well done!
It's interesting to hear this side. I still have a bias against the Adams name after learning of the Alien and Sedition Act, which his father implemented.
You should check out the one on John Adams as well then.
Is there a series on the presidents?
@@heckler511 Could you bother to try for yourself?
@@heckler511 Yes, just search CZcams for “Professor Dave US Presidents” and you’ll see he has now covered every single president from 1789 to the present day.
It is interesting that one of the most intelligent US presidents was succeeded by one of the least intelligent. Interesting how US history repeats itself.
Abraham Lincoln was a Jr Republican in Congress when JQ Adams was in Congress.
Whig. The Republican party didn't exist until the 1850s.
Five, five presidents have now not attended the inauguration of their successor.
6:32 add another president to that list haha
doctor?
2:00 journal not diary
They are synonyms, kiddo.
John Quincy Adams made it where widows of decease soldiers still get pension after their spouce's death as before the pension ended when the husband died. Albeit he came to making it law after a widow held his clothes hostage while JQA was having one of his swims in the Potomac River butt naked just so she can get JQA to listen to her.
For a good read on the Adams family, one could do worse than Gore Vidal's essay on the Adams brood...
One of my favorite presidents.....he sure loved his plants. (like me).
Hi
Hello!
You can add Donny Trump to the lack of attendance to the inauguration of the next president haha
I’m related ! Somehow I’m related,,, ✊ USA !
Dsisd
J q Adam's is kinda hott
John Q Adams versus Andrew Jackson. Jackson might have been a war hero but as far as human rights goes he’s one of if not the worst president of all time.
He also likes fruit
Both Adams, Andrew Johnson, and Nixon is why I didn't argue against Trump not wanting to be there for Biden's inaugeration. To put a foot down on the idea the president needing to be at the inaugeration of their successor would be a joke. Especially when one of the previous presidents that didn't was a founding father himself.
5 Presidents, now Trump
I wonder if Trump will win a seat in the House and seal the comparison.
Except for any of Adams’ policies!
I think Henry Clay cursed any future chances for the presidency with that corrupt bargaining he did with John Quincy Adams. Even after Jackson stepped down and when Clay made it to the main ballots he never won.
As for John Q. Adams, he wasn't one of the worse, but he pretty much screwed up his chances for a second term with bargaining with Clay to make him 6th president in return of making Clay Secretary of State as shown with how the Jacksonian Democratics rose in power during his presidency. Not to mention the fact he actually did better in first election against Jackson than he did in the second.
This one seems biased in favor of Adams against Jackson. One has to ask why Jackson maintained his popularity with the public. Having read Cobbett’s biography of Jackson, (a contemporary bio of a living man), I’d say that it seems like then as now, the elites opposed the common man.
Also, I picked up what seems to be a contradiction - paying off the national debt is decidedly opposed to Hamiltonian politics, whereas Jackson actually DID pay off the debt, and earned the wrath of the bankers and elites, who, then as now, want to keep the people permanently in debt to their benefit and the people’s cost.
Professors these days are far left don't want to watch anything they have to say
I don't understand what that sentence means.
@Dizasta Boi I think it means "cheri largent" is full of crap, which is typical of wingnut anti-intellectual snowflakes.
