Answer 1

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andrew Jackson was the 7th President of the United States served in the House from 1829-1837. He was also known as 'people's president.' After becoming the president he sought to represent the common man. In the War of 1812, Jackson fought in the Battle of New Orleans against the Britishers and won the fight, for which he was much praised and celebrated. In the elections of 1828, he won the elections with popular votes. Jackson was also the founder of the Democratic Party.

Jackson became the first president in the US history for inviting the public in the White House during inauguration. This gesture of Jackson brought him the title 'King Mob.'

From these events, it is true that Jackson spoke for the nation on all matters and stood for the common man.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
