Explanation: i just did it on edg

[A speedy removal] will relieve the whole State of Mississippi and the western part of Alabama of Indian occupancy, and enable those States to advance rapidly in population, wealth, and power. It will separate the Indians from immediate contact with settlements of whites; free them from the power of the States; enable them to pursue happiness in their own way and under their own rude institutions; will [slow down] the progress of decay, which is lessening their numbers, and perhaps cause them gradually, under the protection of the Government and through the influence of good counsels, to cast off their savage habits and become an interesting, civilized, and Christian community.Like most politicians of the early 19th century, President Andrew Jackson believed that the rights of independent white farmers should take priority over the rights of American Indians. Furthermore, the country’s population was growing, and Jackson knew that white settlers would probably move onto American Indian lands no matter what treaties were signed. As this would likely lead to conflict, Jackson thought it was in American Indians’ best interests to move west.

In this speech, Jackson addresses Congress on the subject of American Indian removal.
