South Carolina Exposition and Protest
Calhoun's nullification theory was that if the federal government refused to permit a state to nullify a federal law, the state had the right to withdraw from the Union.
John C. Calhoun who was vice-president under both Quincy Adams and Jackson was a strong proponent of the right of states to nullify federal laws.
The leader of South Carolina's reaction to nullify the tariff of 1826 by Andrew Jackson was politician John C. Calhoun from South Carolina
John C. Calhoun became known as "The Great Nullifier" because of his Civil War doctrine that asserted the right of the states to nullify any federal laws with which they disagreed.
I am not sure that he hated Calhoun, but they became bitter political enemies when Calhoun became the champion of nullification- the right of a state to nullify, i.e. refuse to obey any law they thought was wrong. Of course, the next step would be to secede from the union if the federal government insisted on trying to enforce the nullified law. Calhoun wanted to be the next President and so did what he could to make Jackson's party look bad. It did not help matters when Calhoun's wife led the fight to banish Peggy Eaton from Washington society after Jackson stood up for her.
When I see you my love. You nullify my brain.
John C. Calhoun called on the south to nullify President Andrew Jackson's tariff of 1828. His home state of South Carolina passed legislation to nullify a federal law. President Jackson was empowered by the Force Bill, which gave the President the power to send troops to make sure federal law was obeyed. Jackson sent federal troops to Charleston, and threatened to hang Calhoun. The Compromise of 1833 eased tensions.
Nullify is spelled N-U-L-L-I-F-Y.
