“Confused”” is a better word. “Nullification” was proposed in the 1790s to block the effects of the Alien and Sedition Acts. Both Jefferson and Madison—the virtual author of the Constitution—hoped to block an action by the Federalists that overroad the Bill of Rights. It was revived in the 1830s by South Carolina to block an obnoxious tariff, then again in the 1850s by some northern States to block application of the Fugitive Slave Act. Fact is that centralizers like Roberts get bent out of shape every time that the power of Washington is challenged.
