Answer 2

C. It started the Doctrine of Nullification

Step-by-step explanation:

The trouble began with the Tariff of 1828. The South was afraid the high tariff would hurt their trade with Europe. South Carolina talked about nullifying the tariff. The argument over the "Doctrine of Nullification" was debated in the Senate. Senator Robert Hayne of South Carolina concluded that if a law was harmful to a particular state, it was the right of that state to declare the law null and void. Daniel Webster of Massachusetts argued that only the Supreme Court could declare a law null and void. He ended his speech with this famous quotation: "Liberty and Union now and forever, one and inseparable."
