The question is wrong. It should be: What is senatorial courtesy? Senatorial courtesy is an unwritten political custom or constitutional convention in the United States. The president consults the senior U.S. Senator of his political party of a given state before nominating any person to a federal vacancy within that Senator's state.
Daniel Webster was the Massachusetts senator who opposed nullification. He also opposed slavery & supported high tariffs.
John C. Calhoun

Andrew Jackson, he found that the idea of nullification was limiting his power and he didn't like that. In fact he was outraged when South Carlolina opposed and made the nullificationa and was only settled when they made an agreement to lower the tariff. I hope this helped!
