FRtR Biographies John Caldwell Calhoun A Biography of John Caldwell Calhoun (1782-1850) Quote March 18, 1782 in South Carolina, Calhoun was born, and educated at Yale College. From 1808 to 1810 an economic recession hit the United States and Calhoun realized that British policies were ruining the economy. He served in South Carolina's legislature and was elected to the United States House of Representatives serving three terms. In 1812, Calhoun and Henry Clay , two famous "warhawks", who preferred war to the "putrescent pool of ignominous peace", convinced the House to declare war on Great Britian. Calhoun was secretary of war under President James Monroe from 1817 to 1825 and ran for president in the 1824 election along with four others, John Q. Adams , Henry Clay, Crawford, and Andrew Jackson . However, Calhoun withdrew from the race, due to Jackson's support, and ran for vice president unopposed. Calhoun was vice president of the United States in 1824 under John Quincy Adams and was re-elected in 1828 under Andrew Jackson. Jackson was for the Tariff of 1828 and caused Calhoun to be opposed to Jackson, which led to Calhoun's resignation in 1832. Because he could not do anything about Jackson's views toward tariffs, which benifitted only industrial North and hurt slaveholding South, John C. Calhoun became the only vice president to resign.

Search ( Enter the name of an historical figure, event or issue) John C. Calhoun John Caldwell Calhoun was born in Abbeville, South Carolina, the son of a small farmer. He received little formal education early in life, but was able to graduate with honors from Yale in 1804. He remained in Connecticut to study law, but returned to his home state and was admitted to the bar in 1807. Calhoun served briefly in the state assembly, but was elected to Congress where he quickly aligned himself with the War Hawks . At this stage of his career he was an ardent nationalist, supporting Henry Clay 's American System Calhoun served as secretary of war under James Monroe . In the Election of 1824 Calhoun was elected vice president under John Quincy Adams ; the president and vice president had a rocky relationship. In the Election of 1828 Calhoun retained the vice presidency, this time under Andrew Jackson Calhoun’s views on the tariff question underwent a total change, from support in 1828 to strident opposition a short time later. The more radical elements in South Carolina supported the concept of nullification , but Calhoun initially counseled restraint. The Tariff of 1832, however, re-ignited the debate and led to a special convention which nullified the federal law within the confines of South Carolina. Calhoun again urged moderation and worked with Clay to bring about a compromise tariff measure. However, Calhoun resigned the vice presidency in order to take a seat in the Senate where he thought that he could more effectively advance Southern interests.

Calhoun Personalities Source John C. Calhoun Politician Born: 18 March 1782 Birthplace: McCormick County, South Carolina Died: 31 March 1850 Best Known As: Pro-slavery southern statesman Most famous for his role in the pre-Civil War debate over states' rights, John Caldwell Calhoun was a U.S. Senator from South Carolina (1832-43, 1845-50) and vice president under presidents John Quincy Adams (1825-29) and Andrew Jackson (1829-32). Calhoun grew up in South Carolina and was educated at Yale (in Connecticut) before opening a law practice back home in Abbeville, South Carolina. He was a state representative (1808) and a U.S. representative (1811-1817) before serving as President Monroe 's Secretary of War (1817-25). His terms as vice president were marked by his differences with his presidents. Adams was an avid abolitionist from Boston, but Calhoun was a pro-slavery southern plantation owner, and Jackson and Calhoun were openly hostile to each other. Things heated up in the early 1830s over the issue of federal tariffs: Calhoun urged that states could nullify federal laws, earning him the nickname "Arch Nullifier," and Jackson threatened to use the army if South Carolina forced the issue (Calhoun's colleague, Senator Henry Clay, helped work out a compromise). In 1832 Calhoun resigned as Jackson's vice president and became a U.S. senator, then briefly served as Secretary of State under

World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History CALHOUN, JOHN C. , preeminent spokesman for the slave-plantation system of the antebellum South, U.S. representative, secretary of war, senator, vice president, and secretary of state. A nationalist at the outset of his political career, Calhoun was one of the leading War Hawks who maneuvered the unprepared United States into war with Great Britain in 1812. After the Treaty of Ghent that ended that conflict, Calhoun was responsible for establishing the Second Bank of the United States, and he wrote the bonus bill that would have laid the foundation for a nationwide network of roads and canals if President James Madison had not vetoed it. A candidate for the presidency in 1824, Calhoun was the object of bitter partisan attacks from other contenders. Dropping out of the race, he settled for the vice presidency and was twice elected to that position. But after Andrew Jackson's assumption of the presidency in 1829, Calhoun found himself isolated politically in national affairs. At first he supported the Tariff of 1828, the so-called Tariff of Abominations, but responding to his constituents' criticism of the measure and believing that the tariff was being unfairly assessed on the agrarian South for the benefit of an industrializing North, Calhoun drafted for the South Carolina legislature his

Beginning his career as a member of the House of Representatives from South Carolina , Calhoun was a leader of the War Hawks , who advocated war with Great Britain. He was secretary of war under James Monroe and secretary of state under John Tyler, but he was best known for his service in the Senate. Elected in 1824 as John Quincy Adams's vice president, he was reelected with Andrew Jackson in 1828. In 1832 he wrote the South Carolina Exposition and Protest, calling the Tariff of Abominations unconstitutional and justifying the state's claimed power of nullification.

Calhoun prepared his last speech during the course of the great debate over the Compromise of 1850, a controversial set of resolutions sponsored by Henry Clay that moved the slavery question squarely to the forefront. On March 4, 1850, too ill to deliver the speech himself, Calhoun watched Virginia Senator James M. Mason read for him. The emphasis was wholly on northern aggression and against the trend for conciliation and compromise. Calhoun would return to the Senate on March 7 to listen to the speech given by Daniel Webster in favor of Clay's resolutions, but died shortly after, on March 31, 1850.
