Of the three men dubbed "the heirs of the founders", which one do you feel you would have supported: Henry Clay, the Westerner who wanted abolish slavery and preserve the Union, John C. Calhoun, the Southerner determined to make states' rights come before the federal government and keep slavery alive, or Daniel Webster, the Northerner who had to manage a New England that wanted slavery gone but also did not see keeping the Union together as a priority
