Answer:

Jacksonian Democrats viewed themselves as the guardians of the United States constitution, political democracy, individual liberty, and equality of economic opportunity, but in truth, their record is an inconsistent one. A main issue of the Jacksonian Era was the call for equal economic opportunity.
