Answer 1

Answer: Andrew Jackson was an effective and vigorous president, acting upon a few key convictions: the principle of majority rule, the limited power of the national government, and its obligation to defend the interests of the common man. He scored a notable success in ending the nullification crisis and achieving tariff reform. While justifying his actions by popular appeals, his banking policies contributed to later instability and his removal policies led to suffering and hardships for Native Americans.

Answer 2

Answer: The removal of voting restrictions for white adult males led to a democratization of politics in the 1820s. A competitive party system featured conventions, rallies, and parades to encourage political participation and identification. Styling himself as the people's candidate in 1828, Andrew Jackson derided the Adams administration as corrupt and aristocratic. Ironically, the Whigs turned the tables in 1840 by out-Jacksoning the Democrats in appealing to the common man.

Answer 3

Answer: As a resident of Rochester, you would have lived in the midst of the religious enthusiasm known as the Second Great Awakening. You likely heard Charles Finney's emotional sermons and learned that you were a moral free agent who could choose good over evil.

Answer 4

Answer: FALSE
