The Era of the ?Common Man? The Jacksonian Period lived up to its characteristics of being the era of the ?common man.? Andrew Jackson allowed the common man an equal chance achieving success through his economic development, political development, and reform movements. During the era of the ?common man? the common man was the the middle class white male. President Andrew Jackson was the first American to come from humble beginnings and to become the President, this personified the idea of the self-made man. Andrew Jackson also personified the common man because he had been born to a family not of means. Both of Jackson?s parents died when he was young and he fended for himself then worked his way into the military then later became the first president not born from wealth.?

Patrick Connolly Mr. Campbell Honors American History 28 November 2012 President Jackson: Dictator or Democrat? For the entire duration of John Quincy Adams? presidency, Americans were itching for someone new. They needed someone rough and tough who could serve as not just a president, but as a national hero. Jackson was the perfect candidate for the job, standing tall and mighty over America with a face that was testament to all the many battles and duels he had endured. Having technically won the popular vote in the 1824 election, which was supposedly ?corrupt,? there was virtually no competition for Jackson in the 1828 election. While John Quincy did run again, Jackson won by a landslide with the electoral vote being 68% for Jackson to a mere 32% vote for Adams.

Zoe Reszytniak Mrs. Malark APUSH 12/3/12 The Era of the Jacksonian Democrats Andrew Jackson?s presidency can be considered a paradox, as he usually promoted one thing, while actually doing another. While the Jacksonians regarded themselves as the guardians of the United States Constitution, political democracy, individual liberty, and equal economic opportunity, they in fact violated all of these. The most prominent violations were the vetoing of the United States Bank, and the Indian Removal Act.

Panic of 1837 A symptom of the financial sickness of the times. Its basic cause was rampant speculation prompted by a mania of get-rich- quickism. The speculative craze spread to canals, roads, railroads, and slaves. Speculation alone did not cause the crash. Jacksonian finance, including the Bank War and the Specie Circular, gave an additional jolt to an already teetering structure. Failures of wheat crops, ravaged by the Hessian fly, deepened the distress. Grain prices were forced so high that mobs in New York City, three weeks before Van Buren took the oath, stormed warehouses and broke open flour barrels. The panic really began before Jackson left office, but its full fury burst out about Van Buren?s bewildered head.
