Well, there r many differences
First of all, although Jefferson claimed to be common man's president, he was not a man of actions. Jackson did a lot for common man. Jefferson's common man was limited to Agrarian Society but Jackson's common man ranged from Planters to labour. Jefferson let the banks stay although he opposed banks and US monetary system but JAckson annihilated banks aggressivley which shows how practical he was when it came to implementing things Jackson changed the system for election of president Jefferson viewed education as a pre-requisite to holding political offices whereas Jackson dint consider formal education of that much importance in this regard Moreover, Jefferson declared owning property to be necessary for voting whereas Jackson abrogated this rule in favour of those who dint own land |

Anyways, I hope this time I can better help you. Differences in Jeffersonian and Jacksonian Democracy A MAN OF WORDS VS. A MAN OF ACTIONS The real difference between the two was application of their views. Jefferson was portrayed as a man of the people, but he remained a wealthy planter who tended to associate only with other elites. Jackson was literally common man’s president. A historian remembers him in these words: "Jackson was the common man incarnate. His mind unclouded by learning, his morals simple and true, his will fierce and resolute". He asserted executive’s powers and denounced aristocratic congress. He once said : "...Corruption has been imputed in many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office" JACKSON VS JEFFERSON ON STATES’ RIGHTS While Jefferson talked about limited government, his actual practices as President differed. He maintained the Bank of the US, authorized the Louisiana Purchase and pushed for stronger party cohesion, all things many Democrats opposed in the ideal. Jackson took concrete steps, killed National Bank, supported Georgia in Worcester vs Georgia, put money from NB in state banks DIFFERENCES IN CONDITION FOR RIGHT TO VOTE Jefferson Believed property requirement was a test of character that man of initiative should be able to meet. In Jackson’s era, Property requirements for voting was eradicated, thus extending the right to vote to common masses CONTRASTING VIEWS ON ELIGIBILITY FOR OFFICE HOLDING Jefferson Believed the educated elite should rule, although he proposed education for all to prepare poorer individuals for public office Jackson Believed all men were qualified to hold office, whether educated or uneducated and that political positions should be rotated VARYING METHODS FOR CHOOSING CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT Jefferson: Candidates were chosen by caucuses of political leaders Jackson: Nominating conventions were introduced during Jackson’s time DIFFERENT VIEWS ABOUT CHOSEN CLASS Jefferson: Yeoman Farmer as the “chosen class”. He has been quoted saying "Those who labor in earth are the chosen people of GOD. Corruption of morals in the mass of cultivators is a phaenomenon of which no age nor nation has furnished an example Jackson: Included planters, farmers, laborers, and mechanics in “chosen class”. VIEW ON INDUSTRIALIZATION Jefferson: Originally feared the consequences of industrialization Jackson: Accepted industry as essential to American economy VIEWS ON PROMOTING UPWARD SOCIAL MOBILITY Jefferson: Education & ambition were keys to success for him; however, he was never able to build support for his proposed system of public education Jackson: Ended the Bank & opened opportunities for individuals to get corporate charters & thus rise on both economic and social ladders. Jackson, a self-made man, believed his economic progress had accounted for his own upward social mobility & others could follow his example Again I have just developed an outline and You can almost double the above content by further elucidating these points.

I don't think that the question is asking the difference between Jefferson and Jackson. I think it is asking the difference between the Jeffersonian democrats and Jacksonian democrats.
Or the answer to this question has to be the same as in 'difference between Jefferson and Jackson'? |

This is just like if you talk about the difference between PML(N) and PPP, it is tantamount to the difference between Nawaz Sharif and Asif Zardari's parliamentarians. Don't let this confuse you
