Yes, John C. Breckinridge was a strong supporter of slavery. As a prominent Southern politician and a vice President of the United States, he believed in the preservation of slavery as an integral part of the Southern economy and way of life. Breckinridge was also a candidate for the presidency in 1860 representing the Southern Democratic Party, which advocated for the protection of slavery in the territories. His stance reflected the broader Southern commitment to maintaining and expanding the institution of slavery during that era.
