• The Republican Alternative

  • It selected presidential candidates through its caucus in Congress, but in the late 1820s, that system broke down with the party split between Andrew Jackson and the incumbent President John Quincy Adams.
  • The presidential election of 1800, sometimes referred to as the Revolution of 1800 resulted in the demise of the Federalists as the dominant party and the election of Jefferson to the presidency.
  • While the Federalists arranged for one of their electors to abstain for voting for Pinckney (to give Adams the presidential seat), Republicans failed to do the same, and the ensuing tie between Jefferson and Burr threw the election into the Federalist-dominated House of Representatives.
  • This system of balloting was later changed by the 1804 Twelfth Amendment, which created a party ticket (one president and one vice presidential candidate), for which the electoral college had to cast votes, rather than casting votes for individuals.
  • Despite the partisan polarization that occurred in the election of 1800, Jefferson's early presidency embodied both Federalist and Democratic-Republican policies that facilitated a peaceful transition of power in this otherwise volatile political period.

• The Election of 1828 and the Character Issue

  • The U.S. presidential election of 1828 featured a rematch between John Quincy Adams, the incumbent president, and Andrew Jackson, the runner-up in the 1824 election.

  • Adams accepted Secretary of the Treasury Richard Rush of Pennsylvania as his vice presidential running mate.
  • The 1828 campaign differed significantly from earlier presidential contests because of the party organization that promoted Andrew Jackson.

  • However, the presidential nominating conventions still serve as the official method of selecting presidential candidates.
  • Bush and Dick Cheney were declared the official presidential and vice presidential candidates at the 2004 Republican National Convention.

  • Color in transition-series metal compounds is generally due to electronic transitions of two principal types: charge-transfer transitions and d-d transitions.
  • In a d-d transition, an electron jumps from one d-orbital to another.
  • Some d-d transitions are spin forbidden.
  • Note the size of the transition metals.
  • Recognize the significance of atomic size and electronic transitions in transition metals.
