Explanation:

Question 58

To solve this, we analyze each option: Samuel Slater was known for the textile industry, Samuel Morse for the telegraph, Walt Whitman was a poet. Robert Fulton demonstrated the practical commercial use of the steamboat.

Andrew Jackson's presidency focused on increasing government responsiveness to the people (the "common man"). He didn't align with Hamilton's or Clay's policies, and while states' rights were part of his era, his main goal was popular will in government service.

Answer:

B. Robert Fulton
