He wanted to preserve the federal union against all threats- in particular against the idea of nullification as espoused by SC. He wanted to stop the corruption that had become rampant after 20 years of rule by the same party. He wanted to not only end the practice of deficit spending, but the retire the federal deficit from the past administrations. He wanted to abolish the Bank of the US because it had become a political tool for the rich and did nothing for the common people. He wanted to end the Indian menace once and forever, at least on the Eastern side of the Mississipi. He wanted to show the rest of the world that the US had enough military might that it could not be trifled with - that it could and would send gunboats or whatever might be needed to enforce its will. He wanted to end forever any threats by Spain and Britain, or anybody against the borders of the US, especially to the South and West, because these borders were most vulnerable.
