Spoil System
Jackson found a way to give opportunity to others candidates in get the presidency, that way was called the Spoil System.
Spoil System also called as ''Patronage System" is when a political party wins election, gives employment to their friends and people who made that the political party won, and each employee would work for 4 years maximum.
''To the victor belong the spoils,'' a famous Jackson supported said. President Jackson appointed people primarily on the basis of loyalty to him and the Democratic Party. Rather than because he though they were especially well-suited to their positions.
