How did Andrew Jackson gain reputation as supporter of ordinary people?

Answer 1

He was a poor man,(who later became rich) who made it very obvious throughout his campaign he supported the "common man." Also he was a military hero if that means anything (Battle of New Orleans)

Answer 2

Andrew Jackson gained a reputation as a supporter of ordinary people through his populist rhetoric and actions. He presented himself as a champion of the common man and portrayed his political opponents as elitist. Jackson also implemented policies such as expanding voting rights, dismantling the national bank, and advocating for an agrarian economy, which resonated with the working class and elevated his image as a champion of ordinary citizens.
