On this date 193 years ago...

Ended a debate between Senators Daniel Webster of Massachusetts and Robert Hayne of South Carolina.

Daniel Webster won the day, but with hindsight, modern citizens may side with Hayne.

Hayne re-enforced the idea of a confederation while Webster defended the idea of a federation.

In a confederacy the people may overcome tyrants quicker than in a federation, for in THAT condition, do the words of the Unites States constitution have TEETH. #AntiFederalistPaper9 http://resources.utulsa.edu/law/classes/rice/Constitutional/AntiFederalist/09.htm "We [the Aristocratic party of the United States,] do not much like that sturdy privilege of the people -- the right to demand the writ of habeas corpus. We have therefore reserved the power of refusing it in cases of rebellion, and you know we are the judges of what is rebellion...."
