President Jackson wanted American Indian tribes to give up their land for white settlement expansion, which means option 2 is the correct answer.
President Jackson wanted American Indian tribes to give up their land for white settlement expansion (Option 2). He supported the policy of Indian removal, which aimed to relocate Native Americans from their ancestral lands in the southeastern United States to territory west of the Mississippi River. This policy, officially known as the Indian Removal Act of 1830, paved the way for the forced removal of many tribes, including the Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Seminole, among others. The goal was to make the land available for white settlers to inhabit and cultivate.
