1 jul 1828 ano - 1828 election: Andrew Jackson forged Democratic Party

Descrição:

New coalition that included Westerners, Southerners, new immigrants, settled Americans. initially a Democratic-Republican, but soon after his ascension to the presidency, his party became known as simply the Democratic Party. The “Democratic” label was particularly appropriate for Jackson’s supporters because their cause was to broaden political opportunity by eliminating many vestiges of elitism and mobilizing the masses.
Martin Van Buren Whigs: a party could not please all the people all the time and that a governing party needed a loyal opposition to represent parts of society that it could not. two distinct wings—Northern industrialists and Southern planters.
