None of them sound right but "D" seems correct since Jackson was the stalwart champion of the average backwoodsman
The South, West and Pennslyvania went to Jackson, New England went to Adams

Because of Andrew Jackson being a manof the oeople and his policy of openness it can be said thet in his presidency political power was more evenly divided between rich and average Americans.
A is wrong because Jackson and the Democrats would hold the Presidency for 12 straight years and 24 of 32 years hence the Jacksonian Era
Jackson was basically from a poor background and was orphaned at an early age. B is wrong
west voted for Jackson overwhelmingly to give him 2 terms as President C is wrong

I like both B and C. Old Hickory was a bad
boy subject to bar room brawl and such. After
he was elected Pres. anyone who opposed him
he wanted to hang. Yes, he had money because he was a Major General in the War
Of 1812. He was a tough old bird.
ps: B is a little stronger than C
