Jackson's Review of South Carolina's Ordinance: 1/5 Stars
- Jackson lets South Carolina known that he's read their ordinance and wants them to know that he understands their arguments.
- He recites that South Carolina has nullified the tariff; they're stating it's unconstitutional and violates the true meaning of the Constitution.
- They've declared it unlawful for the government to enforce any payment of the tariff in South Carolina.
- Further, they forbid the government from appealing to the Supreme Court to enforce payment; if they do, they'll be in contempt of court.
- Not only that, he understands that they'll consider any effort of the government to harass them, close their ports, or obstruct their commerce to be a reason to secede from the Union.
- They're serious.
