In explaining why the nullification of the 1828 Tariff of Abominations was justified, John C. Calhoun contended that
a. the people had ratified the Constitution and, therefore, could decide on the constitutionality of a federal law.
b. the states were sovereign because they had formed a compact called the Constitution.
c. the Supreme Court had declared the Tariff of Abominations unconstitutional.
d. Congress was sovereign and could decide all major questions, including slavery.***
e. President Andrew Jackson had been elected by the whole people and agreed with his position.
I am very confused with this one so I am really unsure of my choice.
