None of which refutes my argument that slavery was more important to them than States Rights.
You're still stuck on stupid. They didn't leave over States Rights you Simp. Accept facts. They left over slavery.
The one issue. Not States rights in general, which overall were enshrined in the document. And all the States agreed on Slavery. And Tarriffs, and other issues they had with the US Constitution as written. They just didn't change the Slavery parts. They added things like line item veto, single issue legislation, and no amendments from the Congress but only from the States themselves.
States rights was part of it, and Slavery was the biggest State right to them.
They actually left over the election of Lincoln and his promise to eliminate slavery from all territories and new States.
