Answer 1

c

Answer 2

Students should begin by describing how Jackson strengthened the power of the president. Some good examples would include the patronage system, use of the veto, his actions in the Nullification Crisis and his attitude toward Indian removal. Comparing these to the use of the office by his predecessors shows how much Jackson altered the relationship between the executive branch and the rest of government. More advanced students should point out the contradictions in Jackson's strengthening the power of the office, considering his philosophical aversion to a strong central government.
