One of jackson's greatest personal vulnerabilities in the 1828 campaign was:

a. the scandal surrounding his marriage

b. his reputation as a cruel slave master

c. his large amount of wealth

d. his lack of conviction

e. charges that he was a coward

A-scandal regarding his marriage.

The marriage of Andrew Jackson and his wife Rachel was criticized during the campaign because she had been married before. Due to divorce laws not being fair to women or even allowed in most cases, Rachel was still married to her first husband. She was shamed through the election and died a month after the election of her husband. Andrew believed the other party was responsible for her death and held a grudge through his presidency.
