I'm helping my friend write a paper, this is the topic: Both Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson claimed to represent the interests of the “common man” and laid claim to the adjective “democratic,” especially in contrast to their political opponents. Which one had the better claim to these titles? Support your position using specific historical evidence.
Now at first he was saying that it was Jackson, but he changed his opinion to Jefferson (and im not sure at all why). I believe that he should have stuck with Jackson seeing as he was the man who started the Rise of the Common man era,
