Answer:
Henry Clay
Explanation:
The Election of 1824 saw no clear cut winner. Under the terms of the 12th Amendment, the House of Representatives would select the president from the candidates with the three highest totals. This eliminated Henry Clay. Jackson's supporters were confindent of winning. When John Quincy Adams was elected by the vote in the House, Jackson's followers claimed a deal must have been made. When Henry Clay was appointed Adam's Secretary of State, Jackson's supporters claimed a corrupt bargain had been made between Adams and Clay, in which Clay would become Secretary of State if he used his influence in the House to get votes for Adams. There was never any concret proof of this deal. Actually, Clay made his decision to support Adams before the vote because they held basically the same ideas for the nation and both disliked the ideas of Jackson. And, Clay turned out to be an outstanding Secretary of State.
