BRAINLIEST! :) In your opinion, which political party was more in favor of states rights (Whigs or Democrats). Support your answer.

Democrats

Explanation:

An example of someone who argued in favor of states rights includes John C Calhoun(former vice president of the U.S) who contributed by writing the theory or doctrine of nullification. This proposed that states inhabited within the union should have the natural right, and are not subject to unconstitutional laws made by the federal government.

Therefore, democrats were in favor of states rights, and did not appreciate social, and economic involvement of the federal government. While the Whigs favored this strong federal government through the power of congress.

John C Calhoun was a democrat.

to protect the united states' role as a world leader, president truman wanted to prevent the soviet union from spreading communism beyond its post-world war ii boundaries. he declared that the united states must assist any nations struggling to prevent a communist takeover.
