Explanation:
Thank you for including the cartoon. I doubt even G***gle could have dug it up.
To answer your question, you have to decide what or who the flying object is. I'm not totally sure whose face is on that flying being, but a good guess would be Jackson. In any event, the point of the cartoon is that the cartoonist does not think much of Jackson for initiating the spoils system.
He (the cartoonist) is depicting Jackson as the devil himself for introducing such a system and the people who partake of the spoils are being taken in by the very devil himself. Not only that, at the time, the Federal Government should not be introducing such give away programs. We in this day and age, don't agree. We think the government is acting in the best interest of people when they (the governments at all levels) help.
The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States ('XIV Amendment') is one of the post-Civil War amendments, and includes, among others, the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause. It was proposed on June 13, 1866, and ratified on July 9, 1868.
The amendment provides a broad definition of national citizenship, which overrides the decision of Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857), who had excluded slaves and their descendants, from possessing constitutional rights. It requires states to provide equal protection before the law to all persons (not just citizens) within their jurisdictions. The importance of the Fourteenth Amendment was exemplified when it was interpreted to prohibit racial segregation in public schools in the Brown v. Case. Board of Education.
