Andrew Jackson's forceful, some would claim tyrannical, tactics create deep political divisions and spawn the emergence of a new political party, the Whigs. The Whigs and the Democrats differ from one another in terms of constituencies, the character of their leaders and their philosophies particularly in the economic realm Jackson has become the standard bearer for those who are pushing at the limits of democracy, taking on this slave-owning aristocrat and inventing him as a "man of the people." "The first people's president," says Dan Rogers, "is really Martin Van Buren. He comes along to consolidate what Jackson was able to symbolize at the beginning."
