Thanks for this wonderful; post, WW. Methinks President Bush can be described as a Jacksonian -- with Wilsonian overtones perhaps?

Thanks, BB--I was fascinated by it, as it very clearly elucidates a segment of American political philosophy "I" haven't seen brought out before.

I've seen LOTS of stuff about Jeffersonianism, Hamiltonianism, and Wilsonianism, but (like the Silent Majority it underlies), damned little on Jacksonianism.

Personally, I hope BushII's philosophy leans WAY more to Jacksonianism than to Wilsonianism!
