The Free-Soil Party was against slavery in the new territories. They also advocated federal aid for internal improvements and urged free government homesteads for settlers. This Free-Soil Party foreshadowed the emergence of the Republican party.

Calhoun was very passionate in seeking to secure the institution of slavery, at least in the plantation South, as well as supporting states' rights. Calhoun argued that if a slaveholder brought his slaves into a free state, they remained enslaved. One of Calhoun's most notable achievements was his gag rule, which prevented discussion regarding the abolition of slavery.]]> 2017-11-14 21:18:23 UTC https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/206976430 Webster 400015917 https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/206976983 FOR(moderate): Daniel Webster viewed the issue of slavery from a historical view rather than based on moral concepts. He believed that previous acts of Congress, such as the Northwest Ordinance and Missouri Compromise, should be upheld. Webster, a moderate, believed that slavery couldn't be removed from places where it already existed, and couldn't be introduced in southwestern lands that weren't ideal for agricultural purposes.]]> 2017-11-14 21:19:57 UTC https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/206976983 Compromise of 1850 400015917 https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/206977580 2017-11-14 21:22:11 UTC https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/206977580 California will be admitted as a free state 400015917 https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647343 2017-11-27 20:27:44 UTC https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647343 The territories of Utah and New Mexico will be organized according to popular sovereignty 400015917 https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647424 2017-11-27 20:27:56 UTC https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647424 Slave trade would be prohibited in the District of Columbia 400015917 https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647498 2017-11-27 20:28:05 UTC https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647498 Texas gives up claims to New Mexico territory, in return govt pays TX $10 mill 400015917 https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647563 2017-11-27 20:28:14 UTC https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647563 New law will be passed to help slave owners regain runaway slaves 400015917 https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647581 2017-11-27 20:28:16 UTC https://padlet.com/400015917/81ol0dtcsftw/wish/210647581
