Nominating conventions were introduced during Jackson’s time
Jackson included planters, farmers, laborers, and mechanics in “chosen class”

Roger Taney, Jackson’s appointee as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, ruled in Charles River Bridge decision that corporate charters should be available to all who chose to risk starting a business
Jackson saw Bank as a monopoly of the rich
Owned slaves, but seemed little interested in abolition
Had a particularly negative attitude toward Native Americans
Had little education & believed education was relatively unimportant
Ended the Bank & with it, control over credit, CRB decision opened opportunities for individuals to get corporate charters & thus rise on both economic and social ladders.
