THE RISE OF MASS DEMOCRACY- 1824 -1840 Chapter 13
A. THE CORRUPT BARGAIN (1824) Election of 1824 J. Q. Adams, Henry Clay, Andrew Jackson, William Crawford (don’t care) Jackson won popular vote, not electoral- House Adams/Clay deal- Sec. of State
B. YANKEE MISFIT IN THE WHITE HOUSE J. Q. Adams- like his dad Minority presdent NOT partisan- didn’t fire seated officials Sectionalism a growing concern
CHANGE IN ELECTORATE By mid-1820 s most states dropped property qualifications for voting -still had to be a white man Pennsylvania 1790 – all men who paid taxes Vermont 1791 – universal manhood suffrage Kentucky 1792 Tennessee – modest taxpaying qualification Conn (1818), Mass (1821), NY (1821) abolished property requirements for voters By 1828 pop vote in all but SC (1832)
C. GOING “WHOLE HOG” FOR JACKSON IN 1828 More organized parties National Republicans- Adams Democratic-Republicans- Jackson (Democrats) Mudslinging & personal characteristics Election of 1828 Sectional Jackson- South & West (agriculture)- new voters Adams- North (manufacture)
I s’pose you’ve read it in the prints, how Packenham attempted To make old Hickory Jackson wince, but soon his schemes repented; For we with rifles ready cocked, thought such occasion lucky, And soon around the general flocked the hunters of Kentucky.

TRUMP ON OBAMACARE It is A LIE! The president and his party are liars and they lie every time they tell people that the government will make people’s lives better.

CHANGE OVER TIME: POLITICS ❧ Important Change #1: ❧ 1840 s: Triumph of democratic populist style ❧ Aristocracy was tainted, log cabins were in ❧ Being perceived as clean, well-dressed, grammatical, intellectual were negatives when it came to national elections ❧ Sturdy American, course trousers, coonskin cap, no collar – this was in
CHANGE OVER TIME: POLITICS ❧ Important Change #2: ❧ Formation of durable Two-party system ❧ In Era of Good Feelings, Jeffersonians had absorbed policies of Federalist opponents ❧ But now, Both Jacksonian Democrats (also called Democratic-Republicans) and Whigs grew out of Jeffersonians
