Bell Ringer CHAPTER 16 Toward Civil War
Chapter Overview
In addition to their social, political, and economic differences, the issue
of slavery drove a wedge between the North and South. As new states
entered the Union, the question of whether to admit them as free
states or slave states arose, and further compromises were reached to
avoid conflict. Still, growing tensions led to differences that could not
be solved by compromise. Slavery became central to the presidential
politics of the period, and elections were decided along strictly
sectional lines. As the disagreements turned more hostile, some states
threatened to leave the Union. These tensions would eventually lead to

they were ratified in 1787. but in the late twentieth century, those provisions do not mean what they meant in

1787. the constitution is a legal document, and it is enforced judicially; but its meaning was hardly fixed when it

was ratified. in particular, the contemporary president has

far broader powers than the original constitution contemplated. it is remarkable but true that large-scale changes in

the authority of the president have been brought about

without changes in the constitutional text, but nevertheless

without significant illegality.

this is a paradox. is it not clear that constitutional

changes, if not textual, are illegal? the paradox has considerable relevance to our current thinking about the presidency in particular and about constitutionalism in general.

perhaps the framers of the american constitution feared

legislative power most of all; 2 but from well-known events

in the twentieth century, it is possible to conclude that it is

presidential power that holds out the greatest risks to both

liberty and democracy. the president is by far the most visible leader in the nation; he is often the only person in government with a national constituency. moreover, he is
