Well,
when the continal congress was making the decleration the south wanted to keep the slaves so in order to establish the document and have the full 13 votes they had to let the south have slaves. both north and south had disputes over the years. when John Brown went to kansas in the 1800's he gatherd the mothers and children tied them up and kill the father in front of them. this was only for the plantation owners. this event was called Bleeding Kansa. john was trying to steel guns from the amo thing and Robert E. Lee told him to surender but john didnot so the generial of the US Army shot the ware house and killed him. this went on when PResident Lincon asked Robert E. Lee to be commander of the US army but since Lee's state was suceding he turned Lincoln down. Lincoln was hurt by that so he asked WIlliam Scott. durning the CIvil war The us had to change the Commanders 7times.. the last commander was Grant soon to be president. in the last year of war The confedersy pres. told LEe to go to grolia warfare but Lee said no lee did go to appromix court house.were he went to a home in that city and surneder to Grant well not letery. since then Wilks booth killed Lincon and said something in spanish than he jumped off the valcney and broke his leg. since than the Us trued to reconstruct the contry when things start to get worse like when the north said that the south will half to let African Americans have more rights the KKK started
Congress put into place popular sovereignty in the new land acquired from Mexico after the Mexican-American war. Popular sovereignty was the right for a state (or in this case, territory) to decided whether they want slavery in their state or territory. Popular sovereignty proved to be ineffective after the events of Bleeding Kansas, where the two separate governments in the new land of Kansas fought with each other.
To attempt to resolve the dispute between the North and South regarding slavery, Congress convened on December 3, 1849. The result of this convention was the Compromise of 1850.
The Compromise of 1850 allowed the New Mexico and Utah territories to choose, in the future, to become slave states. The South avoided adopting the Wilmot Proviso. A stronger Fugitive Slave Act was passed by Congress.
Congress attempted to resolve the north and south disputes that lead up to the civil war by enacting a number of agreed upon compromises that they hoped would appease both sides of the country.
The controversy over the new territories in westward expansionism primarily revolved around the issue of whether these territories would allow or ban slavery. This dispute heightened tensions between the North and the South as it directly impacted the balance of power in Congress and threatened the delicate compromise that had been established between free and slave states. The debates ultimately led to the Missouri Compromise, the Compromise of 1850, and other legislative agreements to manage the issue of slavery in the new territories.
Extension of slavery into the new Western territories, and the balance of power between North and South in Congress.

The paradox of public opinion regarding Congress is that people generally disapprove of Congress as a whole, yet tend to re-elect their individual representatives. This demonstrates a disconnect between the perception of the institution and of individual lawmakers.
There seems always to be a bit of a power struggle between the Legislative and the Executive branches of government. Congress passes legislation that the President is sometimes inclined to veto. Congress can attempt to override the veto, so there is mechanism in place to allow Congress to force its will in spite of an attempt by the Chief Executive to block it. The primary power that Congress has to limit the President's power is control of the Federal pursestrings. Congress decides where money will be spent, and how much.
The Supreme Court's sentence stated near or less followings: - Dred Scott was a slave and then no US citizen. So he had no right of appeal to the Federal Justice; - his stay in Territories where Missouri Compromise had forbidden the slavery meant but nothing because the Compromise had been void and without effect since its formulation in 1820, as the Congress had no power to legislate on slavery in the Territories; - according to this thesis, the Territories were and remained open to any form of exploitation, with or without the slavery; - The Missouri Compromise had been totally unconstitutional and unconstitutional would be any future Congress's attempt to interfere about the matter of slavery in the western Territories. That led to a huge raise of opposing and violent reactions both in the North and South, which neared the Nation to a conflict between the States.
