Jacksonian Democracy

                                             The Jacksonian Democracy: For the People              
                     
                     The Jacksonian Democracy, changed the who political movement because it was made for the common man. This movement was all about tactic and learning how to appeal to the people and their needs. The Jacksonian Democracy promoted a limited government, equality for laws and rights, but also promoted a strict power this gave an electoral advantage over any other political party. This party was able to acknowledge the needs of the people and unlike other political political powers such as the Whigs who focus solemnly on the economy. According to historian Marvin Meyers, the Jacksonian central ideas remain present to this days such s liberty, equality, honesty, and dignity. These are some of the values that must be practiced in the government, this will help the people trust the government and the decisions they make. The Jacksonian Democracy revolutionized political parties with these morals because other political parties were extremely corrupt and only focus on the rich white men. The Whigs would persuade the public by their economic progress and promises for the future, while the Jacksonian focused on issues happening at the time. Even though the Jacksonian Democracy created controversy it helped shape some if the government that i s in present day.
