To what degree was Andrew Jackson responsible for
the democratic developments that the U.S.
experienced at the outset of the Age of Jacksonian
Democracy and to what extent did he expand those
democratic and economic principles to other
Americans? (Speak to President Jackson’s actions between
1824 – 1838.)
Answer:Nothing happens in a vacuum. Though Jacksonian Democracy occurred largely under the eye of Jackson during the presidency, it would not have been possible without the socioeconomic and social changes of the previous decade.
