7 The Age of Jackson: Election of Andrew Jackson and the emergence of “Jacksonian Democracy” Background:  Since the end of the War of 1812, the United States had enjoyed an “Era of Good Feelings”. There was only one political party (Republican) and the general mood was one of unity and cooperation  By 1824, the Republican party had begun to splinter over the role of the federal government and sectional priorities/differences (North-South-East)

8 The Age of Jackson: Election of Andrew Jackson and the emergence of “Jacksonian Democracy”  From this friction, four candidates (from the same party) would emerge to run for president

9 LEARNING OBJECTIVES: 1.Explain the events and impact of the presidency of Andrew Jackson [8.54]  Election of 1824 and the “corrupt bargain”  Expansion of suffrage  Emergence of “Jacksonian Democracy” INSTRUCTIONS:  Read New Parties Emerge (324-326) and Jackson as President (327-328)  Completes parts 1 and 2 on Onesheet The Age of Jackson: Election of Andrew Jackson and the emergence of “Jacksonian Democracy”

10 MAIN IDEAS:  During the Jackson Era, American democracy expanded and our modern political system began to take shape  The reemergence of a two-party system occurred when the Republican party split over the role and power of federal government into the Democratic party and the National Republican party (Later to be called Whigs)  An expansion of voting rights (suffrage) and the election of the “common man” Andrew Jackson in 1828 signaled the growing power of the American people (white men specifically)  New ways of political campaigning such as mudslinging, slogans, and rallies emerged during this time The Age of Jackson: Election of Andrew Jackson and the emergence of “Jacksonian Democracy”

11 Part 1: The Election of 1824 and the “Corrupt Bargain”

12  During the election of 1824, none of the four candidates received a majority of the electoral college votes  In accordance to the Constitution, the election then went to the House of Representatives to select a winner where Henry Clay (KY) was the influential leader  Clay met with John Q. Adams and Clay decided to use his influence to defeat Jackson  Adams won and Clay was appointed to serve as his Secretary of State (an important stepping-stone to presidency) The Election of 1824 and the “Corrupt Bargain”

13  Jackson and his supporters were furious and accused the two of making a “corrupt bargain” and stealing the election from the people. Clay and Adams denied any conspiracy.  Though fully capable, Adams’ was unable to garner much support for his initiatives as the limited government faction of the Republican party opposed government spending on “internal improvements” and expanding role in world affairs. The Election of 1824 and the “Corrupt Bargain”

14 Part 2: The Election of 1828 and the Rise of “Jacksonian Democracy”

15  By the time the Election of 1828 had come about, the Republican Party had split: Jackson’s supporters called themselves Democrats and Adams’ supporters the National Republicans  The Democrats favored states’ rights and limited federal government (banking and internal improvements were states’ responsibility)  The National Republicans favored a strong central government (banking and internal improvements were federal responsibility)

16 The Election of 1828 and the Rise of “Jacksonian Democracy”  The campaign was marked by mudslinging (use of gossip and lies to make an opponent look bad), campaign slogans, buttons, and rallies. (practices still carried on in modern political campaigns)  Jackson won the election easily, but the results demonstrated a growing rift in the young republic as Jackson only losses were in the industrializing north  John C Calhoun (who had been Adams’ vice-president) supported states’ rights and switched to the Democrats and also served as Jackson’s VP

17 The Election of 1828 and the Rise of “Jacksonian Democracy”  By the 1820’s, the property ownership requirement to vote had largely disappeared and the right to votes for white males was greatly expanded.  This meant that for the first time common laborers (working class) such as sharecroppers, dockworkers, factory workers and others could vote  This newly expanded American electorate admired Jackson because he was seen as a patriot, a self-made man, and a war hero

18 The Election of 1828 and the Rise of “Jacksonian Democracy”  Jackson carefully portrayed himself as a “common man” and would lead the Democratic party in an effort to open government opportunities and services to the people and expand their political power… “Jacksonian Democracy”
