Jackson

=Claudergine Aspilaire Period 6 4/08/11= = = =Under what circumstances, if any, can a state reject a Federal Law? Why do say this?= =I think that under anz circumstances a state can't reject a federal law because it is a single state facing an entire nation, if it was all the states against the federal it would have been possible but one state rejecting the federal is not possible because of the intense power of the national goverment.= = = =**Mini-Lesson**= =Hayne Webster Debate= =Use text book pages 249 and 150 to complete a:= =Who: Senator Robert Hayne and Senator Daniel Webster= =What: One of the famous debate in history over whether or not a State can nullify a law put in place by the Federal Government when it is a part of the Union.= =When: 1830= =Where: In the Senate/ Congress= =Why: To the justification or disaprovement of the right of State's to nullify any law established by the Federal Government that isn't suitable for it's people or violates the rights of State.= = = =**Summary**= =The Federal Governemnt and State Government once again got into an argument. Hayne with the State Government, and Webster with the Federal Government, argued over "Nullification" and "State Powers". South Carolina fraud the tariff and threatened to sucdeed from the Union. Jackson used military power to collect the taxes from the state which was an abuse of his power. It foreshadowed the roots of Civil War and the growing of Sectionalism, the North versus the South. I personally believe that nullification is warranted on some circumstances depending on the motif, it is a lawful way to protest Leglislation of the Federal Government. States could have a voice against the Federal Government by the nullification.= = = =**Document-Based Investigation**= = = = = =**1. Identify.**= =Refer to Document 1. According to the song, what were the people willing to do to show their support for Jackson?= =Jackson was at this time an incredible president, and was supported by many people, many of which would risk anything to fight for their beloved president against the rebellious Southern people who favored nullification which could potentially affect the Union in its integrity.= = = =2.**Analyze**= =In the song, southern men are depicted as favoring nullification. What lines in the song express the opposite view?= =In the song, written in favor of Jackson's strong belief about Federalism, and belief about the nullification which harm the Union then rather focusing on bringing good to it, the following line depicts this view, "Without their trade, we are not afraid." It is a proof of how the Country believed that kicking out the South from the Union would not affect the nation as a hole, and that the future of the Union was better off without nullifying southern states. "Be with our rifles handy" said Jackson's supporters, willing to fight against the Southerners who wish to nullify Federal Laws.= = = = =

**1. Identify. ** Refer to Document 2. To whom is Jackson being compared in this image?

 In this image, I believe Jackson is being compared to a dictator, because Early American did not agree with monarchy, in consideration of their distaste for King George, as well as other European monarchies. Jackson is seen as someone stepping on the Constitution, not respecting any of the limit set by the Constition when in reality the Constitution is what sets the bar, limits for Government in control. For him to be seen stepping on the Constitution means that he has no respect, no loyalty and no interest in the well being of the country.

 2. **Elaborate ** What do you think was the cartoonist's Point of View? Explain your answer.

 The Artists point of view was to show all the contradictory beliefs of Jackson. He was a strong believer by not allowing nullification within the Union while the Artist express his point of view in a clear way he demonstrate that not allowing states the right to nullify a federal law is unconstitutional, and showing how to the Constitution is shredding under Jackson's feet.

1. **Identify** Refer to Document 3. Who does the cartoonist seem to support in this image?   I think that the artist is favoring Jackson, because Jackson is being treated as an helpless man, trying to destroy, and ever rising problem with a State-funded bank that he never agreed with. After cutting some stuffs from the Federal Government  he seems like he can't harm the Hydra of the second national bank.
