B) white South Carolinians depended heavily on slavery and worried that federal tariffs, internal improvements, and other federal activities were all efforts to utilize contested provisions in the Constitution that could enable the federal government in the near future to abolish slavery using similar constitutional grounds. C) the heavy state political influence and press attention given to South Carolina Radicals, who expressly supported utilizing nullification and, to some extent, even supported secession from the nation. D) notable South Carolinian politicians serving in Congress, such as Calhoun, believed that secession was the preferred course of action, but they adopted the compromise political position of nullification to give President Jackson a chance to preserve the Union.
