APT: Andrew Jackson is often depicted as a wild man and populist opponent of aristocratic privilege. There is some truth to this, but Andrew Jackson was an aristocrat in Tennessee. Elite classes in the?frontier?were successful businessmen and?lawyers?who often were as rough around theedges?as anyone else. The only form of social hierarchy among whites was in terms of accomplishment. Andrew Jackson grew up in this milieu, quickly?moving?up the social?ladder. And while he may have felt alienated from Northeastern elites, he had his own kind of aristocratic demeanor.

The Era of the ?Common Man? The Jacksonian Period lived up to its characteristics of being the era of the ?common man.? Andrew Jackson allowed the common man an equal chance achieving success through his economic development, political development, and reform movements. During the era of the ?common man? the common man was the the middle class white male. President Andrew Jackson was the first American to come from humble beginnings and to become the President, this personified the idea of the self-made man. Andrew Jackson also personified the common man because he had been born to a family not of means. Both of Jackson?s parents died when he was young and he fended for himself then worked his way into the military then later became the first president not born from wealth.?

Seamus Moran Chapter 14: Jacksonian Democracy at Flood Tide 11/18/12 ?Nullies? in South Carolina? South Carolinians, still scornful toward the?Tariff of 1828, attempted to acquire the necessary two-thirds majority to nullify it in the S.C. legislature, but determined Unionists blocked them. In response to the anger at the ?Tariff of Abominations,? Congress passed the?Tariff of 1832, which did away with the worst parts of the Tariff of 1828, such as lowering the tariff down to 35%, a reduction of 10%, but many southerners still hated it. In the elections of 1832, the?Nullies?came out with a two-thirds majority over the Unionists, met in the state legislature, and declared the Tariff of 1832 to be void within S.C. boundaries.
