I would have voted for John Quincy Adams.

Andrew Jackson was known to h ave been conspiring in the spoils system. It is a very despicable thing to do, and would have tarnished his reputation in my eyes. Also, he held democratic views, I am conservative. This is why I would vote for Adams rather than Jackson.
