Stephen Douglas- Stephen Douglas was a northern politician and supporter of popular sovereignty that was a leading voice in the Compromise of 1850. He and Lincoln debated in the famous Lincoln-Douglas Debates in the election for an Illinois senate seat in 1858, which he won. Comment by Erin Bohn: PLEASE start numbering these! I have put this comment on your papers nearly every time. Abraham Lincoln- At this time, Abraham Lincoln was a rising star in the Republican Party and was emerging on the national stage. As a result of his famous campaign against Douglas and his public adversity to slavery, he quickly became a contentious public figure that gained no support amongst southerners who saw him and his party as threatening their very livelihoods.

The court established its role as the arbiter of the constitutionality of federal laws, the principle is known as judicial review (see also Federalist Papers, 78). Fletcher v. Peck (1810, Marshall). The decision stems from the Yazoo land cases, 1803, and upholds the sanctity of contracts. McCulloch v. Maryland (1819, Marshall). The Court ruled that states cannot tax the federal government, i.e. the Bank of the United States; the phrase "the power to tax is the power to destroy"; confirmed the constitutionality of the Bank of the United States.

????????????Small sectional cracks became nationally dividing crevices by the 1850s. The North and South?s clashes over allowing slavery in the territories threatened the nation?s unity. Many attempts to quell sectional aggression arose, including the Compromise of 1850. However, every attempt proved to be of no use and the nation continued to spiral into what seemed to be an eternal sectional rift, with no chance of escaping.
