Historians refer to the rise of Andrew Jackson to the presidency as a “triumph of the white man’s democracy” because during the so-called “Age of Jackson” the right to vote was extended to nearly every white adult male, fueling the modern party system,  and slavery became stronger in the south forcing thousands of Native Americans off their land.
