I have an essay test tomorrow and i am having trouble with this question.
In what ways was Andrew Jackson a states' rightist and in what ways was he a nationlist?
Thanks for any help you can give.

Thanks. I actually have a more specific question now.
These are my ideas and i was wondering if they were correct.
Jackson as a states' rightist- Hatred of the Bank of US and the "Trail of Tears.
Jackson as a nationalist- Force Bill (that is my only idea for him being a nationlist, but if you have any other ideas i would be grateful)
Thank you very much.

Some of the other nationalistic examples I found in the Wikipedia article were Jackson's strengthening of the presidency and his determination to pursue Manifest Destiny. Keep reading.
