Jackson believed that his duty as President was to support the Constitution and the Federal Union against all threats, foreign and domestic.
If your referring to the picture in which Jackson is dressed up like a king and standing on the constitution he was standing on it because in the Whig's mind he was like a monarch whom the people did not want. They also thought that he would abuse the constitution, In fact he had interpreted the constitution very loosely, and in the eyes of the Whig's they did not like it and they tried to smear his reputation.
