wait but it says by 1828
How about d?
"Foremost in the fight to preserve slavery was John C. Calhoun. Yet while Calhoun was the theorist who revivified Madison's idea of nullification for use against tariff acts in 1828 and 1832, he was also staunchly against secession. As a member of Monroe's cabinet, he had pushed for national improvements such as canals and roads. Even when Calhoun no longer advocated federal power for such ends, he ran for president three times. He was not interested in seceding from the Union over which he hoped to one day preside."

so is the answer d
Yes.
Sure, I'd be happy to help you with these questions!
1. The question is asking about John C. Calhoun's stance by 1828. To find the answer, it would be helpful to understand the definitions of "secessionist," "sectionist," and "nationalist."
- A secessionist is someone who supports the idea of a region or state leaving or withdrawing from a larger political entity, such as a country.
- A sectionist is someone who prioritizes the interests of a particular region or section within a country over the interests of the nation as a whole.
- A nationalist is someone who is strongly dedicated to the interests and unity of a nation as a whole.
To determine John C. Calhoun's stance, you can look for historical information or reliable sources that discuss his beliefs and views around 1828. It might be useful to research about Calhoun's political career, what positions he held, and his speeches or writings at that time.
2. The question is asking about what President Van Buren is best remembered for. Again, to find the answer, we need to gather some information about President Van Buren's actions and impact during his time in office.
- Van Buren served as the 8th President of the United States from 1837 to 1841.
- He faced economic challenges during his presidency, including a major financial crisis known as the Panic of 1837.
To determine what President Van Buren is best remembered for, you can research his presidency, policies, and accomplishments. You can also look for sources that discuss his role in handling the Panic of 1837 and evaluate whether it is considered the most significant aspect of his presidency compared to other achievements.
Remember, it's important to rely on credible sources and historical accounts to find accurate information and get a well-rounded understanding of the topics.
