    Andrew Jackson’s election marked a new direction in American politics. He was the first westerner president elected and he declared himself to be the “champion of the common man”. Jackson gave political power to the common man as seen by Margaret Bayard Smith on the day of Jackson’s inauguration in 1829. (Doc. A) Smith describes the Western farmers going crazy in the streets and at the White House which wasn’t seen as an ordinary inauguration. Usually an inauguration would take front of politicians and not just the common people. Jackson was able to provide political power to the common man by ending voting rights to just white males and this meant any man could vote versus white landowners. To provide even more power to the common man Jackson invented the rotation policy of officers also known as the Spoils System which was designed to fill positions in congress with Jeffersonian-Democrats that had helped Jackson win the election.

    One of the territories he considered buying were the Hawaiian Islands. During the early 1800's, missionaries from the United States went to Hawaii to try to convert people to Christianity. Their descendents started sugar plantations. The planters conquered Hawaii's financial system by the late 1800's. The Queen thought that the planters had too much authority. So, she thought that she should try to limit their power. Meanwhile, in the United States, the trade laws were changed to support sugar grown completely in American states.
