"King Andrew" was a nickname given to the 7th president who used his power in government to veto almost every economically based strategies passed by the Supreme Court which involved a National Bank. His goal was to support the common man and he believed that a National Bank would only benefit the rich. So when the Second National Bank of the United States' charter expired, and Nicholas Biddle, the chairman, suggested an extension, he vetoed it. This later caused a depression after he retired from presidency.
He also was known for the use of a Spoils System which gave him the power to give governmental jobs to the people of his choosing. Many believe his use of this system encouraged corruption and governmental weakness.
While there was dispute between certain states (like North and South Carolina), President Jackson tried to unite them through forceful bills. This was surprisingly effective in neutralizing and uniting the states.
