Calhoun was a cuck traitor, and throughout his time as a politician, he kept tripping things up, KNOWINGLY.

 

A Timeline Relative To Jackson and Calhoun

 

Part 1/2

 

1828: Calhoun secretly wrote the South Carolina Exposition and Protest, declaring the right to "nullify" the tariff. Jackson, although sympathetic, believed even more in maintaining the union, guided by a central government. Jackson's opposition to Calhoun became a source of great contention between them. Spurred on by Fake News of the press, Calhoun published letters between him and Jackson discussing the issue of nullification of the Tariff. The Telegraph, having at first sided with Jackson, now agreed with Calhoun.

 

Even Calhoun's wife was a sore spot with Jackson:

 

Jackson had to deal with the annoying "Petticoat affair" or "Eaton affair", a swirling eddy of gossip among the cabinet and their wives, with Calhoun's wife, Florida, leading the way, against Secretary of War Eaton and his wife, Peggy. It was being said she had been a barmaid in her father's tavern, either fornicating or acting the harlot, and that she had married too soon after the death of her previous husband because she had been carrying on an affair with the one whom she would next marry. This resulted in the shunning of the Eatons, and Van Buren stood with Jackson and Eaton. Jackson, still stinging from the campaign mud slung about his own wife now dead, as a result, decried the gossips, seeing right through them as an attempt to oust Eaton. He therefore came to Mrs. Eaton's defense. The gossiping hens dramatically escalated their stand by claiming they were simply defending all American women.

 

May, 1830: Jackson found Calhoun had requested President Monroe to censure him for having entered into Spanish Florida back in 1818 when Calhoun had been Secretary of War, fueling the fire between them.

 

Feb., 1832: Jackson recommended Van Buren for the post of Minister to Great Britain, but Calhoun blocked it. The Senate rejected Van Buren for ambassador to Britain, spurred on by Calhoun who hoped to end his career. However, this only served to gain sympathy to Van Buren, ensuring his ultimate election to the presidency. Van Buren remained in the capacity of adviser to Jackson, and became the vice-presidential nominee of this year's election. The Petticoat affair had resulted in the creation of the Kitchen Cabinet, a group of unofficial presidential advisors.

A Timeline Relative To Jackson and Calhoun

 

Part 2/2

 

May, 1832: Jackson influenced the Democratic National Convention to nominate Van Buren as his running mate to replace Calhoun.

 

December 28, 1832: With three months remaining as vice president, Calhoun resigned and became U.S. Senator for South Carolina, replacing the man who had held that seat, Robert Y. Hanye, so he would become governor. He had been unsuccessfully pushing nullification at the Senate, receiving strong contention from Senator Daniel Webster of Massachusetts. Jackson issued a proclamation, describing nullification as:

 

"the power to annul a law of the United States, assumed by one State, incompatible with the existence of the Union, contradicted expressly by the letter of the Constitution, unauthorized by its spirit, inconsistent with every principle on which it was founded, and destructive of the great object for which it was formed."

 

Concluding South Carolina was on "the brink of insurrection and treason," he asked to them to confirm their loyalty to the Union agreed upon and fought for by their predecessors, and to deny there existed a right of secession:

 

"The Constitution … forms a government not a league … To say that any State may at pleasure secede from the Union is to say that the United States are not a nation."

 

Jackson asked Congress for a "Force Bill", authorizing the use of military to enforce the tariff, which Calhoun called "military despotism", even as Calhoun and Clay were proposing a new tariff that would provide a compromise. The previous compromise tariff had been too low for Clay, but he got Calhoun on board with this one for Clay to oppose military enforcement.

 

March 1, 1833: The Compromise Tariff and the Force Bill passed the same day. Calhoun, with Clay, and others left the chamber in protest.

 

Calhoun continued to influence other administrations, was pro-slavery, and was also chosen as Secretary of State under Tyler.

 

June 8, 1845: Jackson died. He had once said, on the last day of his presidency,he regretted he "had been unable to shoot Henry Clay or to hang John C. Calhoun", clearly alluding to them as treasonous.As he lay dying, he repeated his regret:"My country would have sustained me in the act, and his fate would have been a warning to traitors in all time to come."
