It is debatable whether he was a sectionalist or nationalist. While he was originally a southerner and against the Bank of the United States because it gave too much power to manufacturers and the economy (the North basically), he fought for the bigger picture and fought for the entire country, not just the south. During the election of 1824, everyone in the country showed their love towards Jackson seen in the outcome- he got the majority of the electoral and popular votes. Therefore, there is evidence that he was both, and it could be debated either way.
