Which president made opposition to the establishment of a national bank a cornerstone of his administration?

President Andrew Jackson made opposition to the establishment of a national bank a cornerstone of his administration. He believed that the Second Bank of the United States represented undue federal power and favored the wealthy elite at the expense of ordinary citizens. Jackson's fierce opposition culminated in his decision to veto the recharter of the bank in 1832 and his subsequent withdrawal of federal funds from it, which significantly weakened the institution.
