Discussion:
Many historians have labeled the 1820s and 1830s as the "Age of Jackson" because Andrew Jackson's presidency greatly altered America's political landscape.
Write an Essay that explores how Jackson's image as an uneducated frontiersman undermined American republicanism and helped produce the partisan politics of the second political system that has come to define American democracy.
In other words, how does Jackson's life story----being born in a log cabin before entering the White House----shape American Democracy?
