States should have the right to limit the power of the federal government

Jackson opposed the Bank of the United States. He felt it was controlled by a group of wealthy Easterners who were using it to become even wealthier.
Jackson also claims the bank is unconstitutional. Although the Supreme Court disagreed in the case of McCulloch v. Maryland.
Many farmers and common people were on Jackson’s side, because they didn’t like the bank’s lending policies.

17. Jackson decided to make the National Bank the major issue in the Presidential election of 1832.
He tells the people to vote for Clay (Republican) if they want to keep the bank and vote for Jackson (Democrat) if they want to get rid of the bank.

He placed the government’s money in a number of state banks. These were nicknamed “pet banks.”
