Grand Canyon University History of the US Discussion Questions

 

I’m working on a history discussion question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

What are the economic and political issues raised by having an imbalance between free and slave states?  Why did the balance of free and slave states matter?

Consider the arguments over the expansion of slavery made by both northerners and southerners in the aftermath of the U.D. victory over Mexico.  Who had the more compelling case? Or did each side make equally significant arguments?
