"All communities divide themselves into the few and the many. The first are the rich and well born, the other the mass of the people... The people are turbulent and changing.... Give therefore to the first class a distinct permanent share in the government. They will check the unsteadiness of the second." -Alexander Hamilton, Farrand's Records of the Federal Convention, The author of this quotation suggests that A)The will of the majority should guide public policy B)Wealthy people are too preoccupied to rule well C)Poorer people must work harder to gain access to economic and political power D)The common people cannot be trusted to run a stable government

Rides the wave of new popular democratic spirit

Strength of the Executive As president, Jackson asserts the power of his office over the other two branches of government numerous times Jackson uses his veto more times than all previous presidents combined

How in this document does Jackson appeal to the “common man”? Explain. How does Jackson demonstrate his belief in the strength of the executive branch? Explain. What other beliefs does Jackson demonstrate in this document? Are Jackson’s claims about the Bank of the United States more Jeffersonian or Hamiltonian? Why? Drawing on your knowledge of political beliefs in early America, write (or draw) a response to Jackson’s veto message that represents the other side of the political spectrum. Try to write or draw in the style of the early 19 th century!

Jacksonian Democrats c.1850 opposed “special privilege” majority rule Advocated “weaker” Federal government

Whigs

1832 is a time when slavery and other issues between the North and South are starting to divide the country like never before (aka Sectionalism). Based off this document and what you know about Andrew Jackson, what do you think he believes about sectionalism?
