The Pennsylvania Origins of the Jackson Movement
Kim T. Phillips discusses the earliest sources of support for Andrew Jackson as a presidential nominee in 1824. She finds that economic discontent in the aftermath of the panic of 1819 was central to the campaign to nominate Jackson, who was seen as a potential reformer of the system of banking and business privilege.
