BJK: “You’re just making cr*p up, FRiend.”

JCBreckenridge: "Nullification 1828.
Elimination of the Bank of the United States, 4 years later, on grounds cited by Jackson who removed the funds to various state banks."

I'll repeat: you're just making cr*p up, FRiend, if you fantasize the Nullification issue of 1828 had something to do with secession beginning in November 1860.
It didn't.

Secessionist acted because of the election of anti-slavery "black Republican" Abraham Lincoln, pure and simple.

All the rest of it is just lame excuses, after the fact, with all the persuasive powers of, "the dog ate my homework, teacher."

I’ll stick with what President Jackson and Calhoun - actual contemporaries, said about this issue back then.

Yes, they were connected. Yes, Jackson shut it down for the same reason Calhoun was trying to shut down the tariff.

I realize that it’s hard to let go the lies of a northern public education.
