2. The Bank of the U.S.
Henry Clay and Daniel
Webster create a bill for
the renewal of the Bank’s
charter
3. The Plan
• This bill will get to the President for him to
sign
• But there is a catch
• Signed=betray his followers
• Vetoed= influential people would be upset
• All about the election of 1836
4. Decision Time
• Jackson vetoed bill
• Declared the bill
unconstitutional
• Gave a message that
the President is the
superior power
5. Why veto?
• Jackson thought the bank to be evil
• More private than it needed to be
• The bank wanted profit more than to help
6. Things to remember…
• Henry Clay
• President Jackson
• Charter of Bank of U.S.
• Jackson vetoed
• President superiority
