美國銀行與輝格黨 The U.S. Bank and the Whigs
約翰泰勒是一位民主黨員,因為不喜歡總統安得魯傑克森而加入輝格黨,泰勒在他代表維吉尼亞州擔任參議員時、更換了政黨,輝格黨以反對傑克森的政策為主要理念、其中又以他的銀行政策為主要反對對象。
為了拆解美國第二銀行,傑克森在1833年將聯邦存款存入數個州立銀行中,泰勒也反對美國銀行、但認為傑克森此舉是嚴重濫用執行權的行為、也危害了州權。他在參議院譴責傑克森的行為,亨利克雷也鼓吹參議院代表應該群起譴責(責難、記下)傑克森的行為。
因為不滿意傑克森的政策,克雷 (Clay),約翰柯漢 (John C. Calhou),與丹尼爾韋布斯特 (Daniel Webster) 成立了輝格黨,泰勒也加入了這個政黨。傑克森總統與民主黨人有些什麼反應?
John Tyler was a Democrat who became a Whig out of dislike for President Andrew Jackson. Tyler switched parties while he was a U.S. senator from Virginia. The Whig Party developed out of opposition to Jackson's policies, including his bank policy.
In an effort to break up the Second Bank of the United States, Jackson in 1833 made federal deposits in a number of state banks. Tyler was also opposed to the U.S. Bank, but he perceived this as a terrible abuse of executive power and a violation of states' rights. He condemned Jackson on the Senate floor. Henry Clay followed by urging the Senate to censure (to blame, on record) Jackson for his actions.
Out of their unified dislike for Jackson and his policies, Clay, John C. Calhoun, and Daniel Webster then formed the Whig party. Tyler joined them. How did President Jackson and the Democrats react?
