A. Briefly describe ONE perspective about politics in the 1830s expressed in the image. The perspective of 1830 politics expressed in Andrew Jackson’s cartoon holds that he was not interested in the United States’ institutions and overlooked American policies. Andrew Jackson exercised his veto power and indeed ended up treating the presidency as a monarchy.

B.  Briefly explain ONE specific event or development that led to the perspective

expressed in the image. The image came following Andrew Jackson withdrawing all of the money from the national bank and gave it the states’ “pet banks” since he disliked the national bank.

C.  Briefly explain ONE specific effect of the political developments referenced by the

image. The panic of 1937 is one specific political development event since Andrew Jackson needed people’s support to use species to purchase government land. However, the matter was unmanageable based on the fact that people wanted to purchase land, bank liquidation went into chaos, and the result was a depression in the United States.
