South Carolina political figure who was elected to Congress in 1810. He also served as vice president, secretary of state and senator. He was most noted as a defender of states' rights and slavery. He died in 1850. He might have become president if his wife, Floride, had not insulted the wife of another member of Andrew Jackson's cabinet.
