Answer 3

Andrew Jackson's election in 1828 is described as The Revolution of 1828. Jackson was the first American President not rooted in the Eastern aristocracy. He was elected by the "common" man and acted within that mandate. All white males were allowed to vote for the first time.

Jackson vetoed more bills in his term of office than all the previous presidents put together. Jackson was also the first to use the pocket veto, which was a delaying tactic in which the President does not sign a bill within ten days of the end of the Congressional term, preventing it from becoming law.

Jackson was a major opponent of the Second Bank of the United States, considered an instrument of the Eastern aristocracy and he succeeded in having the bank's charter revoked.

Answer 6

JACKSONIAN DEMOCRACY represented a provocative blending of the best and worst qualities of American society. On the one hand it was an authentic democratic movement that contained a principled egalitarian thrust, but this powerful social critique was always cast for the benefit of white men. This tragic mix of egalitarianism, masculine privilege, and racial prejudice remains a central quality of American life and to explore their relationship in the past may help suggest ways of overcoming their haunting limitations in the future.

I said that one impact he made is that he extended the right to vote to all white males, and the second impact made is that he destroyed the Second National Bank. Thoughts? I'm still not sure what to put for the last impact so if you guys could help that would be cool
