From My Final Today

"the Nullification Crisis and Calhoun's threat of secession in 1833 erupted over a fundamental disagreement on the nature of the ratification of the Constitution: whether it was a voluntary-conditional agreement upon satisfaction, subject to renewal at each political generation, or a voluntary agreement once it was created to the satisfaction of the generation that signed it, and binding on all men thereafter."

I think I'm gonna get an A for pulling stuff like that out of thin air. Oh well. The class is over. Time to finish my Medieval term papers (two, mofos, TWO!) and get ready for the final tomorrow. Then after the Thursday morning final on Roman Law in Medieval Europe, it's back to Rise and Fall of the Whig Party.
