Jacksonian Democracy

Election of 1824 Election dominated by Sectionalism Following Era of Good Feelings, 4 people run for president John Quincy Adams (North) Andrew Jackson (South and West) Henry Clay (West) William Crawford (South) Jackson gets the most votes, but not a majority Since we have no winner, the top two go to the House of Representatives Jackson and Adams Clay, Speaker of the House of Representatives , convinces his supporters to vote Adams Clay later became the Secretary of State for Adams (corrupt bargain)

John Quincy Adams Presidency Adams and Clay denied any corrupt bargain Adams had big plans to expand government’s role in transportation Opponents (Andrew Jackson supporters) refused to allow Adams to do anything he wanted. Congress allowed for some improvements to transportation but not nearly what Adams wanted

Election of 1828 Corrupt bargain upsets many Jackson supporters They hated Adams and made sure everyone knew it Andrew Jackson runs for president against Adams again and wins big in 1828 (very nasty campaign) Cause: Universal Male Suffrage All white men can vote (no property needed)

Jacksonian Democracy The push to give more of a say to the common man Like Jeffersonian Democracy BUT actually followed through Jackson promises “equal protection and equal benefits” for all Americans (all white men) Spoils system: giving out government jobs to supporters of the President

Discussion What is Jacksonian Democracy? (Describe it in your words) How does Jacksonian Democracy relate to universal male suffrage? Predict how things will change because of more power being given to the common man and their “champion” in Jackson.

Jackson’s beliefs Jackson believed he was the champion of the common man Nicknamed “Old Hickory” by his soldiers because of how tough and hard he was, but was very popular He helped create the Democratic Party Political Party which operated on the following ideas Common man (or their representative in government) should have power Less government power (unless it helped the common man) Supports States’ rights

reflection Compare and Contrast Jeffersonian and Jacksonian Democracy.
