Question 2

Corrupt Bargin

Answer 2

In the 1824 election, no outright majority was attained and the process required resolution in the House of Representative, whose Speaker and candidate in his own right, Henry Clay, gave his support to John Quincy Adams, and was then selected to be his Secretary of State

Question 3

Democratic Republicans

Answer 3

The party formed, first as a caucus in the House of Representatives and then in every state to contest elections and oppose the programs of Secretary for the Treasury Alexander Hamilton. Jefferson needed to have a nationwide party to counteract the Federalists, a nationwide party recently formed by Hamilton. Foreign affairs took a leading role in 1795 as the Republicans opposed the Jay Treaty with Britain, which was then at war with France. Admiring the French revolution, it demanded good relations with France, until Napoleon came to power in 1799. The party denounced many of Hamilton’s measures (especially the national bank) as unconstitutional. The party was strongest in the South and weakest in the Northeast; it favored states’ rights and the primacy of the yeoman farmers and the planters over bankers, industrialists, merchants, and investors

Question 4

National Republicans

Answer 4

The National Republicans were a political party in the United States. During the administration of John Quincy Adams (1825–1829), the president’s supporters were referred to as Adams Men or Anti-Jackson. When Andrew Jackson was elected President of the United States in 1828, this group went into opposition. The use of the term “National Republican” dates from 1830.
