Do you think jacksons response to the nullification crisis promoted democracy. why or why not

The Nullification Crisis was South Carolina stating that they did not have to follow Federal laws they did not agree with as they could invoke the 10th amendment. Jackson intervened as president and stated Federal law trumped State Law and the states must follow federal mandates. In the Federal sense of supporting Congress which is to represent the people, Jackson's actions were democratic. However, in the sense of the people having a say at the state level and should be able to change the government procedures when it is not fitting to their basic rights, the actions were not democratic. The issue of state v. federal power has been an issue since day 1 and continues to be a problem still today.
