SHORT ANSWERS
What was the “corrupt bargain” between Henry Clay and John Quincy
Adams?
In the 1824 election, no candidate received a majority of electoral
votes, so the House of Representatives would select the president.
Henry Clay, Speaker of the House, agreed to use his influence to help
Adams become president. Once in office, Adams appointed Clay
secretary of state, traditionally the stepping stone to the presidency.
Andrew Jackson’s followers accused the two of making a “corrupt
bargain” and stealing the election.
Summarize the Supreme Court case of Worcester v. Georgia? The
Cherokee nation refused to give up its land in Georgia and relocate to
Indian Territory in Oklahoma. In the treaties of the 1790s, the federal
government had recognized the Cherokee people in the state of
Georgia as a separate nation with its own laws. The Cherokee sued the
state government and eventually took their case to the supreme court,
Worcester v. Georgia. Chief Justice John Marshall ruled that Georgia
had no right to interfere with the Cherokee because only the federal
government had authority over matters concerning the Cherokee.
President Jackson supported Georgia’s efforts to remove the Cherokee.
He vowed to ignore the Supreme Court’s ruling.
