In his Politics, Aristotle divides government into 6 kinds, 3 good and 3 bad. The good forms are monarchy, aristocracy, and polity, while the bad forms are tyranny, oligarchy, and democracy. Each of the good forms has the possibility of turning into its bad form - i.e., monarchy into tyranny, aristocracy into oligarchy.
Seeing that democracy is listed in the "bad camp", people automatically assume that Aristotle was anti-democratic. But this is an over-simplification.
By democracy, Aristotle really means mob rule. Polity corresponds more to what we'd think of as modern democracy - a stable, orderly institution that represents and protects the people. For instance, polity is what existed in Athens during its Golden Age. Aristotle didn't oppose this by any means.
Indeed, unlike his teacher Plato, who sought to create an ideal model of the state ruled by philosopher-kings, Aristotle thought that the best form of government was determined by the situation. For a virtuous people, polity could very well be the best form of government; for a subservient people (and Aristotle believed that such people existed), monarchy or tyranny might be the natural state of affairs.

<span>President Andrew
Jackson, who had always defended the right of states in past conflicts,
this time, was on the side of the federal authorities in this conflict
of interest, asking Congress to authorize him to use military force
against South Carolina , if it becomes necessary. President
Jackson sent ships to the ports of South Carolina to collect tariffs,
at the time when Congress was already working on a new compromise bill,
to lower tariff rates at acceptable prices. <span>South Carolina accepted the new plan, and for a time, the whole issue of separation was forgotten.</span></span>
After the slavery was officially abolished in all of the US, the African Americans were quick to move out of the South and migrate massively toward the North. There were several factors as to why this happened. One big factor was that even though the slavery was abolished, the segregation and discrimination continued, so the opportunities in life were very limited. The South was not industrialized, while the North was heavily industrialized, thus the African Americans saw an opportunity to work in the factories instead in the fields. The atmosphere in the North was much better for them, as the majority of the people welcomed them and had no problems with them because of their skin color.
