Hi,
I'm working on an assignment that I'm having a little trouble with and was hoping you guys could help a little. I need to compare and contrast Jeffersonian and Jackson democracy. I've made a list of there major actions but am not sure how to separate them into democratic actions and anti-democratic actions. To fill out the chart I need to separate them into four categories: democratic actions during the Age of Jefferson, anti-democratic action during the Age of Jefferson, democratic actions during the Age of Jackson and anti-democratic actions during the Age of Jackson. I've listed what I have so far. Thanks in advance for your help!
Jackson: Nullification Crisis and Bank Crisis, opposed American system (vetoed all bills for roads and canals)
Jefferson: Louisiana Purchase, Wrote the Declaration of Independence, Authorized the Lewis and Clark Expedition, Embargo Act, Non-Intercourse Act
Similarities

Andy Jacks was pretty badass. he was a man's man who was for the people.
he knew how to "git 'er done."
Tommy-J was more of a sissy wet pants, but wrote some cool documents.
