Which of the following best describes the central argument in the South Carolina pamphlet?


A) Refusing to comply with laws that uphold slavery is unconstitutional; Lincoln’s election now means that slavery’s opponents will use the government to pursue an unconstitutional agenda.


B) Refusing to end legal sanction for slavery has kept the institution alive; stronger measures must be taken by the government to end slavery across the country once and for all.


C) Refusing to help states that practice slavery transition their economies by not creating policies that protect their industries leaves those states with no choice but to continue slavery or face ruin.
