Presidency of John Quincy Adams

John Quincy Adams, our 6th President, was elected president despite losing both the popular and electoral vote. He was elected by the House of Representatives.

John Quincy Adams was the son of 2nd president John Adams.

As Secretary of State, Adams negotiated the Adams-Onís Treaty, which allowed the U.S. to acquire Florida. 

Adams was not a fan of being president, and had lots of drama and friction with Andrew Jackson, but we don't want to give away all of the info in the description because we want you to listen. Enjoy!
