Jacksonian Democracy The ‘Average Joe’ Americans began to feel left behind by the wealthy Americans Small Farmers, Frontier Settlers, and Slave Owners began to rally behind Andrew Jackson who promised to make changes For the first time, party members began to choose who would represent their party This period of time became known as Jacksonian Democracy

The Election of 1828 Jackson supporters were determined to have him win the election This formed the Democratic Party John Quincy Adams vs. Andrew Jackson This election came down to depictions of their personalities

The Election of 1828 Andrew Jackson’s Depiction: Man of the people War Hero Was Poor, rose to success through hard work John Quincy Adams’ Depiction: Harvard Graduate Son of old President Rich, out of touch with the common man

To the victor belong the spoils of the enemy! The Spoils System Once elected President, Jackson thought he should reward those who stuck by him He gave some of his supporters government jobs (Kitchen Cabinet) To the victor belong the spoils of the enemy!

3 Regions Emerge During Jackson’s Presidency North: Manufacturing (American made instead of imported) South: Agriculture (did not like tariffs, made manufactured goods too expensive) West: Developing, wanted sale of public land

Tariff of Abominations Tax on imports: What Region hated it? South Result: Nullification Crisis John C. Calhoun (Jackson’s VP) believed states should have more power than federal government. Calhoun thought South should be able to Nullify (get rid of) the tariffs that only benefited the North. Jackson disagrees, Martin Van Buren takes over as VP for Jackson’s second term.

Panic of 1837 Whig Party: formed to oppose a powerful president and support a strong Congress instead. Martin Van Buren becomes president Because of Jackson’s anti-bank policies, Panic of 1837 or economic depression occurs. Van Buren gets the blame William Henry Harrison (Tippecanoe) gets elected in 1840
