'''[[John C.

He is remembered for strongly defending [[Slavery in the United States|slavery]] and for advancing the concept of minority rights in politics, which he did in the context of defending white Southern interests from perceived Northern threats. He began his political career as a nationalist, [[Modernization theory|modernizer]], and proponent of a strong national government and [[protectionism|protective tariffs]]. By the late 1820s, his views reversed and he became a leading proponent of [[states' rights]], [[limited government]], [[Nullification (U.S. Constitution)|nullification]], and [[free trade|opposition to high tariffs]]. His beliefs and warnings heavily influenced the South's [[Secession in the United States#Confederate States of America|secession from the Union in 1860–1861]].

The San Joaquin kit fox is the smallest member of the dog family in North America and one of several endangered species that lives within the borders of the Colony of Calsahara. In 1990, its population was estimated to be 7,000. This subspecies is still endangered, after nearly 50 years of being on the Endangered Species List. Today, much of the kit fox's remaining habitat is extremely fragmented, movement corridors are degraded or blocked, and only a few large areas of native grasslands remain on the San Joaquin Valley's perimeter in the Carrizo Plain.
