Which early president am I? I was the champion of the common people, as I felt that more people should be able to participate in their government. I also believed that my political supporters should be rewarded for the help they had given me, so I started a new policy known as the spoils system in which I gave them government jobs. To help me make important decisions I had lots of help... I had my official Cabinet and also my unofficial "kitchen cabinet." Andrew Jackson George Washington James Madison James Monroe John Adams Thomas Jefferson

Presidents after President Andrew Jackson continued the use of the spoils system to encourage others to vote for them. But by the late 1860s, reformers began demanding a civil service system.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

FIRST CABINET President George Washington developed the Cabinet system by asking the heads of the existing three executive departments and the Attorney General to meet with him on a regular basis to discuss issues of importance and to report on their department's work. The first 4 Cabinet positions (1789) were: Secretary of Treasury, Secretary of State, Secretary of War, and Attorney General. The formation of departments is mentioned in Article 2 Section 2 of our Constitution "he may require the opinion in writing of the principal officer in each of the executive departments upon any subject relating to the duties of their respective offices---." As the country became larger and more complicated, other departments were added. At this time, we now have 14 executive departments.
