The correct answer is "His actions during the War of 1812. "

After the war, growth, expansion and social change happened and there was a greater level of equality between society, and very little tolerance for aristocrats. During the campaign of 1828, Jackson triumphed over John Quinci Adams. This happened mainly because of Andrew's leadership in the war, he earned fame as a military hero.
