In what way was andrew jackson's election a triumph of the "common man"?

Andrew Jackson's election to the presidency of the United States in 1829 represented a triumph of the common man for a very particular reason: Jackson was born into a humble, poor family without any strong financial background, educational opportunities, or social advantages (unlike previous American presidents).  Instead, Jackson was able through military service, and the cultivation of a strong and engaging public personality, to rise through the ranks of American politics to become the president of the United States, in turn showing - to the public, at least - that any American could rise to the highest office in the nation, even without social, educational, and financial benefits.  

Andrew Jackson rallying call and association with the common man won him a special place with the masses which ended in his triumph over Quincy, an establishment insider. Jackson did not have prior connection with the insiders of government, and did not have a federalist pedigree.
