This 2001 jetta battery went dead because of a amplifier on my stereo. When I tried to push start it nothing. When I tried to jump start it, the engine turned over but it would not start.

Most likely the stereo had/has a problem. The amplifier isn't turned on until the stereo sends a signal to it, usually via a blue output wire. Make sure it has spark and is getting fuel. Check the fuel pressure.
