Answer:

D. is the correct option

Explanation:

Andrew Jackson was the seventh president of the USA. After becoming president he removed high ranking officials by claiming that he was purging corrupt officials. He started the " rotation office" system by saying that this system will allow honest citizens to serve the government. Instead of reforming the government he appointed the loyal ones to various posts. Newspaper editors who supported his cause received special favor. Jackson made Samuel Swartwout the collector of New York City, the collector later fled with one million dollars. Personal loyalty to him was the primary reason for the appointment to federal offices.
