Did thomas Jefferson or Andrew Jackson's ideas lead to the founding of the democratic party?

Andrew Jackson was the leader of the first Democratic Party. Its main purpose was to elect Jackson president. It was more attuned to Jefferson's ideas than to Adams and made some claims to Jeffersonian democracy. The party split up and died before the Civil War. After the war ended, a new Democratic Party formed to oppose the Republicans.

Who was the last US President who was neither Republican nor Democratic?

10.Whig Party1. William Henry Harrison2. John Tyler3. Zachary Taylor4. Millard FillmoreDemocratic-Republican Party1. Thomas Jefferson2. James Madison3. James Monroe4. John Quincy AdamsFederalist Party1. John AdamsNo Affiliation1. George Washington Depends how you define "Democrat". If you start the list of Democrats with Andrew Jackson, then none of the first six presidents were either Democtrat or Republican. Nor of course, were the Whig Presidents WH Harrison, Tyler, Taylor and Fillmore. So ten in all Democrats sometimes confuse the issue by claiming to be lineal descendants of Jefferson's "Democratic Republicans". If you take that seriously (don't) then Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and perhaps JQ Adams should be omitted from the list. Andrew Johnson was elected VP as a "Unionist", but this was just the Republican Party with a few pro-War Democrats added on, so he doesn't really count. As president, his administration was entitrely Republican.
