[Sherman Logan]

Shortly after Lincoln’s election, Congress passed the highly protectionist Morrill tariffs. That’s when the South seceded, setting up a new government.

Not chronologically correct.

The Morrill tariff passed the Senate on February 20, by a vote of 25 to 14. It was finally approved on March 2.

This was well after seven southern states, with 14 senators, had seceded and formed their new government on February 8.

I assume you are capable of doing the math that shows why the tariff passed in 1861 when it had failed in 1860?

[Para-Ord.45]

By the 1850s the North had majority.

The Tariff act wa in it`s infancy well back in 1859.

Were the nullifications all about anti-slavery laws ?
