** Summary: **

** Along the controversy of creating the __Second Bank of America__, and the tariff passed on British goods, long debates on __state's rights__ and Federal power took place. And with the tariff, southerners were now forced to buy northern products that were much more expensive than those of the British were. Vice president __John C. Calhoun__ carried out the idea that states had the right to deny or reject any law passed by the Congress as long as it contradicted the state's interest in any form or way. This idea was later enforced when Senator Daniel Webster and Senator Robert Hayne debated. Webster explained that the nation is made up of united states living as one; therefore, states should be able to carry out their protest against any law that may be to no interest to the nation. One's state disagreement is the same to all. ** ** _ **
