The fierce political battle over the tariffs and nullification between South Carolina Senator John Calhoun and President Jackson in the late 1820s and early 1830s
A) illustrated that political debates during this period could grow quite rancorous, despite the close and intimate personal relationship between South Carolina Senator John Calhoun and his fellow southerner, President Andrew Jackson. B) developed despite the fact Calhoun and Jackson shared the same views about the scope of authority of the national government, both favored internal transportation improvements, and joined in opposition to the Bank of the United States. C) was prompted, in part, because Calhoun's political evolution had led him to become the nation's strongest defender of states' rights against federal government authority, requiring him to take an uncompromising and challenging stand against the tariffs and Jackson's presidential authority to enforce federal laws in every state. D) was attributable to President Jackson seeking to retain the strong political support of New England cotton manufacturers and industries that benefited from the 1828 tariff.
