Andrew Jackson is the correct answer.

[QUOTE="Silverbond"][QUOTE="funsohng"] yeah but Toronto in 1812 (which was called York, then) had nothing there.
Just like it is now. Ka-zing!funsohng
But I love Toronto! :o
try actually living there hate the weather.Weather aint bad compared to rest of canada
Yes techincally it was a tie. The Brits burned washington and while they celebrated that a tornado came out of nowhere and made them leave the city as I recall. Also the battle of New Orleans (which actually happened after the treaty was signed) was a pretty impressive victory for the U.S
I think the War of 1812 was pretty much a tie, wasn't it?
In fact, that's when the word "antebellum" was used, which refers to maintaining the way things were before the war. If I'm correct, neither side made any gains or suffered any losses in terms of spoils of war.
The Canadians and their Native Americans allies.

Abe? He was never in Mexico. :roll:
As far as the actual fighting it was definitely a U.S loss because they failed to accomplish there objectives while the British/Canadians succeeded at there's.

It is your opinion then that the objective of any nation attacked by another is solely the maintenance of the status quo?
Haven't you heard, America always wins.

Surf the internet long enough, and you'll eventually start to think America lost every war it's ever been in.

Yeah, I was being sarcastic.
With the mention of Vietnam and Iraq, I could tell you were being sarcastic.
[QUOTE="scorch-62"][QUOTE="Bourbons3"] And what do you think happened to Berlin? There wasn't much left by the time the Russians got there. :PBourbons3If victory went to who took/destroyed the most capitals (your apparent views of victory and loss), Germany alone would have won WW2 by seizing Paris (among the other capitals they took) and razing London. The United States firebombed Tokyo and the Russians pimp-slapped Berlin. So in other words, your terms of victory and loss are flawed. London wasn't razed, just bombed. And Berlin was pimp-slapped to hell before the Russians got there, thanks to the RAF. And yes they got Paris - but we got it back. Plus we got Rome. Don't be mean. :P
Sad that the Russian lost almost 1,000,000 men just tripping over debris.;)
I spell and pronounce aluminum "aluminum", not "aluminium", thats all I care about.;)
