The mandate of heaven is the thing that Chinese emperors claim was given to them by their deities. A ruler earns it from the previous emperor when he retires, or when he dies. It could be lost when another dynasty takes over and takes the mandate of heaven.
What Jackson meant by this quote is if one man stands up for what he believes in, many will follow because it is not that they do not believe in what they are following it is only because they are just too afraid to be the one to stand up.This also means that one man standing up for something he truly believes in is greater than many people standing up for something they don't. This idea influenced his leadership greatly because Andrew Jackson had qualities most Americans admired. He was a patriot, a self-made man, and a war hero and this quote adds to that by showing Americans what he truly believed in and in turn making people want to follow him.
