John C. Calhoun's plan, known as the "Southern Address," included leaving the issue of slavery alone, returning runaway slaves to the South, giving the South its rights as a minority, and restoring the political balance in the Senate of free states and slave states. However, it did not include preventing the spread of slavery in the California territory. In fact, Calhoun believed that slavery could and should be allowed to spread into new territories and states, as it was critical to the economic and social stability of the South.
