  1. The Reformed Whig Party Andrew Jackson's Loyal opposition 1834

  2. “King Andrew I” Andrew Jackson was the seventh president of the United States, who was elected in 1829. Jackson was both a military mind and a politician from a humble background. He unashamedly adopted the name Democrats for his new rising political party. Jackson was not shy in using his new found presidential power and in protest to his seizure of the executive power the reformed Whig Part formed.

  3. John Calhoun, Henry Clay, And Daniel Webster joined forces in the Senate in 1834 to pass a motion against Jackson for his taking money from the Bank of America. They united as the Whig Party. They used this title because of the 1800’s american opposition to the monarchy.

  4. Sub-Groups: Supporters of Clay’s America System Southern States Righter’s Northern Industrials Evangelical Protestants Anti-Masonic Party The Whigs were a collaboration of many different groups all centered around their hatred of Jackson.

  5. Beliefs? The Whig Party was really just a large group of people with different beliefs and different backgrounds. The party itself didn’t have a set system of beliefs. So if you met a Whig from the North his beliefs would be different than a Whig from the South.
