Abstract
Ohio Representative Lewis Campbell argues that Southern, not Northern Aggression, is the root of political disunity. Campbell argues the founders meant to limit the spread of slavery by using the 1774 Articles of Association and choice quotes from Jefferson denouncing slavery as immoral. Finally, Campbell compares the South and North according to economic and educational standards and argues the damaging effect Slavery has on the South.
