1 President Andrew Jackson and Jacksonian Democracy

2 President for the Common Man During his campaign for president Andrew Jackson claimed that he represented the common man. He promised to look out for the interests of average people, not just the rich and welleducated. Jackson was determined to have the majority rule, regardless of one s education or wealth. This idea of the majority rule has become known as Jacksonian Democracy.

3 I m voting for Andrew Jackson Yeah he supports us common men

4 Andrew Jackson Wins Election! Large numbers of Western farmers and workers in the nations cities turned out to vote for Andrew Jackson. With an overwhelming number of votes, Andrew Jackson won the 1828 race for president making him the 7 th president of the United States.

5 Clean my shoes boy!!!

6 Scars on Andrew Jackson s face

8 Revenge!! After his experience being held prisoner by the British when he was 13 he developed a strong hatred for anything British. At the age of 35, Andrew Jackson was given the chance to fight the British during the War of 1812.

9 Old Hickory Jackson was appointed to be a general in the American Army. At the Battle of New Orleans in 1815, Jackson crushed the British army even though his troops were greatly outnumbered. He became a national war hero. He earned the nickname Old Hickory, after a solider said he was as tough as a hickory tree.

10 Old Hickory Hero of the Battle of New Orleans

11 Jackson Becomes President Shortly after Jackson won the election of 1828 his wife Rachel died of a heart attack. Andrew Jackson looked thin, pale and sad during his inauguration on March 4, 1829.

12 Jackson s Inauguration Thousands of people were there to celebrate Jackson becoming president. One person wrote, all sorts of people, from the highest and most polished, down to the most vulgar and gross in the nation were there. The crowd got so rowdy people broke glasses and grabbed for food and drink. The pushing and shoving of the crowd forced the new president to flee from the White House.

13

14 Spoils System When Andrew Jackson became president he fired many of the government officials and replaced them with his friends and supporters. This practice of giving government jobs to his political backers became known as the spoils system. In many ways Andrew Jackson was spoiling his friends by giving them jobs in government. I spoil my friends by giving them jobs

17 Native Americans in the Southeast Since the 1600s, white settlers pushed Native Americans westward as they took more and more land. However, by 1820 there were still about 100,000 Native Americans living east of the Mississippi River.

18 Native Americans Some whites hoped that these Native Americans could adapt to the white people s way of life. Others believed the Native Americans were uncivilized and refused to live near them.

19 Cherokee Nation More than any other Southeastern tribe, the Cherokee Indians had adopted white culture. The Cherokee had their own Constitution, they spoke English, they sent their kids to missionary school, and some even owned slaves!!!

20 Jackson s Removal Policy However, gold was discovered on Cherokee land in The discovery of gold made the Cherokee land very desirable and whites wanted it!!! In 1830, Andrew Jackson passed the Indian Removal Act that required Native Americans to give up their land and relocate west. Andrew Jackson gave them one year to leave.

21 The Trail of Tears In 1838, federal troops rounded up over 16,000 Cherokee men, women and children and forced them into camps. Soldiers then gave the people a hour to pack up everything from their homes and get ready to leave. Most people ended up with nothing more than the clothes on their backs.

22 The Trail of Tears Over the fall and winter of , these Cherokees set out on the long journey west. Forced to march in the cold, rain and snow without proper clothing or food many grew weak and died. It is estimated that ¼ of the 16,000 Cherokee people who were forced to march west died (that s 1 out of every 4). This harsh journey of the Cherokee from their homeland to Indian Territory in Oklahoma has become known as the Trail of Tears.

23 Modern state of Oklahoma

24 Rising Sectional Differences When Andrew Jackson took office the nation was divided into 3 main sections. The Northeast, South and West. Legislators from these regions were arguing over 3 major economic issues: the sale of land, national improvement such as canals and railroads, and tariffs (taxes).

25 The South however didn t like the high tariffs. The South made their money by growing cotton and other crops and selling them to foreign countries for credit rather than money. The tariffs would make the foreign goods cost more. North Vs. South People in the north supported the idea of high tariffs (taxes on imported goods) because the tariffs meant that people would want to buy the cheaper American made goods rather than imported products with the higher taxes.

26 The tariff helps us in the North!!! Because of the tariff, the stuff we make here in the factory is always cheaper than the stuff made overseas. Therefore, people want to by the stuff we make here in America.

27 We in the South hate these stinking tariffs!! We trade our cotton for stuff with Europe but because of the tariff we always have to pay more on the stuff we get from overseas. I want to be able to trade my cotton for stuff made in Europe without have to pay a tariff!!

28 Tariff of Abomination In 1828 Congress passed a bill that greatly raised tariffs (taxes) on raw materials and manufactured goods. People in the South were outraged!!! Southerners felt that the economic interests of the Northeast were determining national policy and the South was being ignored by the national government. They hated the tariff and called it the Tariff of Abominations. (An abomination= a hated/horrible thing) This is an abomination!!!

29 Nullification Crisis John C. Calhoun, Andrew Jackson s vicepresident understood the frustration of the Southern farmers over the tariffs. Calhoun developed a plan called the Doctrine of Nullification. The Doctrine of Nullification said that a state had the right to nullify (reject) a federal law that it considers unconstitutional.

30 South Carolina Threatens to Secede President Jackson was against the Doctrine of Nullification but didn t want the South to remain upset. He asked Congress to lower the taxes and Congress agreed however South Carolina was still not happy. Congress please lower the tariffs!!

31 South Carolina Threats to Secede South Carolina threatened that if the tariffs weren t lowered even more they would secede (break away) from the United States and start their own country. Jackson was furious and said he would hang the first person he got his hands on!!!!!!!!! We still aren t happy! Ugh. This is so frustrating!!!

33 Andrew Jackson and the Bank In 1832 when Andrew Jackson was elected for this 2 nd term as president he vowed to destroy the Second Bank of the United States run by Nicholas Biddle. Jackson believed that the Second Bank was evil and only helped the rich, not the average man. Jackson vetoed (rejected) bill after bill that would renew the bank s charter. (The charter would that allowed the bank to stay open.) I will destroy you Bank!!

34 King Andrew pponents (people who were against) Andrew ackson called him a King Andrew. They said he anted too much power as a president and was ore like a tyrant.

35 Martin Van Buren Becomes President When Andrew Jackson s second term as president was over Martin Van Buren took over as the 8 th president of the United States. During Martin Van Buren s presidency the US was going through a deep depression.

36 The Rise of Whig Party During the election of 1840, a new political party called the Whigs was created. They were given their name after a British party that opposed power of the king. The leader of the Whigs thought that the name would fit since he disliked Andrew Jackson and often called him King Andrew.
