True or false, john C Calhoun believed that a state could nullify a federal law?


------ He supported the idea that America was an affiliation of states, that the states wielded the power, and the federal government's role was to insure the common interests of the states.





The constitution requires the nation to have two political parties


------- False





Hamiltions arguement for establishing a national bank is an example of loose construction of the constitution


------- True. Hamilton's argument extends on the ideas if standardized currency throughout the colonies. Franklin also backed him on this issue.





The nullification Crisis was caused by a dispute over the tariff


------- hmmm. Yes - that Tariff iissue was the final straw in several incidents. The SC leaders (that include Calhoun) chose poor timing to make this stand. Texas demonstrated that a state could successfully succeed from the Union (and they eventually retuned under their own volition).





The abolitionists were americans who wanted to get rid of the tariff


------- no. abolitionists were of the mindset to that slavery was a moral issue, and based tarriffs had no direct correlation.


the main issue in the election of 1844 was expansionism


------ it was a big issue in 1844. Andrew Jackson convinced Tyler not to run, and that left Polk to run against Clay. Clay was for develping the existing American infrastructure, and Polk directed more focus on westward expansion (fufilling the idea of Manifest Destiny). Polk won, and the losing party began the rant “Fifty-four Forty or Fight!” after the election.





temperance reformers wanted to prohibit the manufacture and sale of alcoholic beverages


------- Yes, that was true. The temperance movement didn't pick up the needed steam till the turn of the century (Roosevelt)





In the original constitution women had the right to vote


--------- No





Edgar allan poe is given credit for inventing the detective story.


--------- No. Poe admired the analytical style of Lord Byron, and he had read some Chinese detective fiction stories ( ';Bao Gong An'; was one of them) that he learned this while in the Manor House School in Hackney (London). He has been given credit in some histories/biographies for inventing detective fiction story genre. Arthur Conan Doyle did credit Poe with influence (';The Mystery of Marie Roget'; in particular).
