Throughout the entirety of his Presidential run, Andrew Jackson displayed some Democratic qualities, but was overall not very Democratic. It is true that his tendency to listen to the word of the white middle class favored the Democratic. However, his unwillingness to listen to any voice other than the Democratic middle class as well as his non-Democratic actions, such as the Native American Relocation and Spoils system, all reinforce the statement that Andrew Jackson was overall not very Democratic.

andrew jackson was not democratic. not only did he go against the ruling of the supreme court and disrespect the separation of powers, but he also inumanely removed native americans from their lands under the guise that it would help them survive. in reality, he did this to give more land to the white prospectors in georgia.

Andrew Jackson was not  democratic.  This is shown in the way he treated Natives, and forced them off their land which is not democratic.

Andrew Jackson was not as democratic as history claims to be. If using the definition of democratic   Andrew Jackson is only democratic towards white males. Andrew Jackson's views about American Indians shows he is not democratic towards everyone. Cherokees did not get a say in the law that forces them to move.

Although Jackson removed the federal bank in an attempt to benefit the people his continuation of the Indian removal act while many Americans were against it and the execution of the Indian Removal Act without Congress approval means that Andrew Jackson was not a democratic leader.

# data[].attributes.body
Jackson has been trying to be more democratic, except many of his results have made them not so democratic, including the bank veto which he didn't really talk with many people about it he just vetoed it on his own, and while he was trying to make it easier for common people not just for the rich, it ended up in inflation and the Panic of 1837. again with the Indian Removal Act, he didn't actually listen to the Indians and ignored he Supreme case of Worcester Vs. Georgia of the Cherokee saying they can have their own land in Georgia, His intentions of the Indian Removal Act was to save the eastern and southern tribes from extinction but by making these tribes move, many have died from that. democracy is the participation of all people in the making of government policy and overall, it shows that Jackson did not allow all people to participate in the making of government policies.

Andrew Jackson was not a very democratic president and leader. A major factor of why Jackson was not democratic was his treatment of Native Americans and how he forced them to move from their homeland in the Trail of Tears. Another major factor was how he handled the National Bank and took away from the wealthy to give to the middle class. Another factor was his support of slavery and looking down upon the slaves of the south.

# data[].attributes.body
Based off the definition of democracy, the participation of all people in the making of government policy, Andrew Jackson was not very democratic. While Jackson was very popular among his constituents, his position in the Indian Removal Act forced a minority of Native American people to move west, even though the supreme court had said not to do so, so that a white majority may use their land. Another example of Jackson being undemocratic is his use of executive power to overrule the wishes of congress, which led many to refer to him as King Jackson due to his extreme use of executive powers, such as the veto.

# data[].attributes.body
Although Andrew Jackson identified as a Democrat, his ideology behind the Bank Veto and his actions against Native and Black Americans, highlighted his highly undemocratic and King-like persona.

While being supported by the majority of the American People with the ideals of the common man in mind, with the continuation of slavery for the booming cotton industry, and the Indian Removal Program where Jackson goes against the supreme court to carry out ideals of wealth, expansion, and manifest destiny over a minorities basic human rights. Jackson valued economic gain over democratic voice and freedom, therefore Jackson was only democratic in the sense of promoting the rights of all middle class white men, not the true democracy of rights for all.

# data[].attributes.body
Although Jackson, to many people, was considered to be one of the most democratic presidents of his time, his denial of basic rights to minorities such as Native Americans through the Indian Removal Act and African-Americans through his ownership of over 100 slaves, goes against the basic principles of democracy. In a democracy, all peoples' rights are to be protected and Jackson's failure to protect those rights made him an extremely undemocratic president.

# data[].attributes.body
While Andrew Jackson was democratic in the sense that he vetoed the Bank of the U.S, which helped to take away some of the privilege that the wealthy got, he was more undemocratic as he signed the Indian Removal Act which forced thousands of Native Americans from their homes and he abused his power by vetoing more than 12 bills and over riding the constitution. Therefore, although in the age of Jackson, he presented himself as democratic in some ways, the undemocratic ways were even greater.

President Andrew Jackson had a plan for the future of the United States with the removal of the National Bank and the Indian Removal Act.  However, these events had led the nation to financial panic in 1837, inflation and had killed many Native Americans after being driven off their land.  Andrew Jackson was only democratic to a certain extent due to these events, their actions and their outcomes.

# data[].attributes.body
President Andrew Jackson was not Democratic. This is due to his excessive use of veto power, seen in his Bank Veto of 1832, vetoing the construction of the Maysville Road in Kentucky solely based off the fact that his rival, Henry Clay, resided there, and blocking anti-slavery literature from being sent through the mail.

# data[].attributes.body
Although Andrew Jackson seeked equality and opportunity for all common men, this didn't apply towards freed, or non freed slaves, and native tribes, also quoting "promising not to extend democracy to African Americans" and seeking to remove Native tribes civil rights, from being able to maintain control of their land with in Georgia, leading to the Indian Removal Act which caused the Tail of Tears were tribes were forced by militias to flee towards the western, causing many deaths from either natural causes, or diseases

# data[].attributes.body
Although, Jackson claimed to work to preserve their ideas that all people are equal and deserve equal rights and opportunities.(then what?  This is a fragment, not a complete idea) However, Jackson's actions in office went against what he claimed that he stood for the common people, (put a period here) his removal of Native Americans with the Indian Removal Act and the Nullification crisis that forced Congress to pass a "force bill" allowing Jackson to threaten force,(did what?  again, not a complete idea) thus Jackson wasn't very Democratic because he represented more of a dictatorship than a Democracy. (This should be your position, and then should be followed by your reasons of support)

Andrew Jackson was democratic. This is because he wanted the people to have more say and power in the government.

# data[].attributes.body
Andrew Jackson vetoed the Bank of the United States because it was controlled mostly by foreigners and the wealthy and he wanted there to be people looking out for lower and middle class men. However, Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act which forced thousands of Native Americans to resettle against their will, and he was only the result of complete male suffrage, not a cause. Therefore, Andrew Jackson was far less democratic then he is often given credit for and was actually very undemocratic in many instances.

# data[].attributes.body
Andrew Jackson fought for the influence of the common man by vetoing the National Bank. However,  most of Jackson's actions were based on his opinions rather than the will of the people, he overruled constitutional powers, and he ignored the system of checks and balances. Therefore, while Jackson was democratic in some ways he wasn't very democratic overall.

# data[].attributes.body
Although Andrew Jackson wanted the people to have more say and power in the government, the continued mistreatment of the American Indians in the Indian Removal act of 1830 and the vetoing of the Second National Bank because of his own personal reasoning in 1832 show that Andrew Jackson was not democratic.

# data[].attributes.body
Andrew Jackson was a democratic man, he wanted the people's voices and choices to be heard equally, however throughout his presidency that is not really the reality. He is seen as “Democratic” because he wanted everyone’s opinions to be heard and equally represented. When saying a democracy is the participation of all people in making of government policy, it means that the democracy has a principle social classes and individuals equality. Things like the veto of the national bank, the corruption, and the treatment of Native Americans all were undemocratic, therefore meaning Andrew Jackson wasn't really democratic.

# data[].attributes.body
Although Andrew Jackson had good intentions, he made many decisions that proved he was not democratic. By vetoing 12 documents while he served as president some could say he was overriding the constitutional democracy. The message Jackson extended the ideas of jealousy and manifestly led to the tension in between the rich and the poor. Which lessened the democracy even more.

# data[].attributes.body
Throughout Andrew Jackson's presidency which was 1829 to 1837,he was undemocratic because of his abuse of power. Although he got more common people to vote, between vetoing the national bank and forcing Native Americans off their Homeland, proves that Jackson's actions were undemocratic.

Andrew Jackson was democratic to an extent. In the case of the Bank veto, Jackson was democratic because he was seeking for the power to not be abused by the rich. But in the case of the Indian Removal Act, this was very undemocratic and showed democracy did not extend to American Indians, and also did not extend to African Americans because he was against the antislavery movement.

Andrew Jackson was a somewhat Democratic when he was the president because some people like the cartoonist thought he was more like a monarch than a president because he abused the power of the vetoe and he used used his power for more of himself. lastly after the surpreme court case Worcester vs Georgia ruled the state didnt have the power to move the indians he told the state they could so he went over the presidential power and was more like a monarch but on the other side he helped influenced the popular vote.

Throughout Andrew Jacksonś presidency, he was not very much of a democratic President. During his presidency, he did many un-democratic like things. First, Jackson forced Native Americans to move. He suggested setting apart an ample district west of the Mississippi for the Indian tribes to occupy. Secondly, the amount of vetoing to the bank by Jackson was not Democratic like. To many people, the use of vetos that Jackson used was shocking since they are like a presidential weapon. During Jacksons 8 years in office he vetoed 12 times, while all the presidents had vetoes 10 times altogether.

Andrew Jackson, continually used his executive power to further his ideals and cement them by his own will.

Andrew Jackson was democratic to an extent. He cared about lower economic classes, but only the white men in said classes.

While Andrew Jackson and his Democrats claimed to work to preserve the ideals that all people are equal and deserve equal rights and opportunities, many of Andrew Jackson's actions in office largely contradicted his claim that he stood for the common man. The behaviors of Jacksonian Democrats hindered Americans pursuits of personal independences, and Jackson's financially limiting policies proved that he and his supporters did not truly seek fair fiscal freedoms for the entirety of American's citizens.  Therefore, Andrew Jackson's view of of being democratic was inaccurate to a great extent and his resulting actions brought harmful impacts on the American democratic process and agencies.
