The Republican and Democratic Parties The modern Democratic Party evolved from the Jeffersonian Republican Party, led and organized by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. The Jeffersonian Republican Party arose as a response to the Federalist Party, headed by Alexander Hamilton and John Adams. Jeffersonian Republicans favored republicanism, a political ideology that emphasizes the unalienable rights of people, a weak federal government, state?s rights, agrarian societal emphasis, and a strict adherence to the principles of the Constitution. The party also opposed the national bank and demoted relations with Great Britain.

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.
