Andrew Jackson's election marked a new era in US political power. Jackson was the first president who was not tied to the founding fathers. He was the first president from the western frontier. His election was the first in which the more recent immigrants and settlers of the frontier exerted enough political power to elect a president. Jackson's defeat in 1824 and subsequent election in 1828 marked the beginning of national political parties.
Unlike most of his predecessors (the presidents elected before him), Jackson was from the West. He was neither wealthy nor educated at an expensive college.
Yes, President Andrew Jackson's veto of the bill renewing bank charters is considered a significant precedent. It established the use of presidential veto power to challenge and reject legislation, setting a precedent for future presidents. It also showcased Jackson's determination to dismantle the Second Bank of the United States and his belief in limited government involvement in financial matters.
The United States presidential election of 1828 saw an unusually large number of personal attacks from the campaign of both Andrew Jackson and John Quincy Adams. Andrew Jackson's campaign accused Adams of purchasing gambling devices with public funds, when in reality they were a chess set and a pool table. John Quincy Adams' campaign attacked Jackson's wife as a bigamist because her divorce hadn't finalized when she married Jackson.
random bs
Andrew Jackson benefited from the 1824 election because he won the most popular votes and electoral votes, but he did not secure the majority required to win the presidency. As a result, the election was decided by the House of Representatives, where Jackson's strong popular support put pressure on the representatives to vote in his favor. Though Jackson ultimately lost the presidency to John Quincy Adams, the election's outcome set the stage for Jackson's successful campaign in 1828.
Andrew Jackson.
precedent
The nature if what you are asking is the riddle itself. Are you referring to his age, the condition of his health, his political party? I do believe the tenure of office act was adopted long after his presidency - and up until then, simply the precedent set by Washington.
To strengthen party loyalty, Jackson set about replacing federal employees with friends or party loyalists. He said that any normal human being could do a government job so why not reward the people who helped him win the election ?

President Andrew Jackson set the precedence of awarding jobs to supporters after electoral victory in 1828. This was a clear departure from past practice of transparency.
The precedent for voluntary union of the colonies was set with the fundamental orders of Connecticut.
That depends on which court you're referring to. In the federal court system, the US Supreme Court sets binding (or mandatory) precedent for all lower courts; the US Court of Appeals Circuit Courts set binding precedent for all US District Courts within their jurisdiction, but only persuasive precedent elsewhere; the US District Courts do not set binding precedent at all, they only set persuasive precedent.
