Jacksonian democracy [(jak-soh-nee-uhn)] A movement for more democracy in American government in the 1830s. Led by President Andrew Jackson, this movement championed greater rights for the common man and was opposed to any signs of aristocracy in the nation. Jacksonian democracy was aided by the strong spirit of equality among the people of the newer settlements in the South and West.
Established in 1834, the Whig Party was a reaction to the authoritarian policies of Democratic President Andrew Jackson. King Andrew, as his critics labeled him, had enraged his political opponents by his actions regarding the Bank of the United States, Native Americans, the Supreme Court and his use of presidential war powers.
