Presentation transcript:

Birth of the Republican party Ch 10 Sect 3 Pg 318

Slavery Divides the Whigs General Winfield Scott became the Pres. Nominee for the Whig Party. Scott owed this to the Northern Whigs who opposed the Fugitive Slave Act. Southern Whigs backed the Compromise of 1850. Whigs lost the election. The party took opposing views on the Kansas-Nebraska Act as well. Southern Whigs looked for a proslavery, pro-union party to join.

Nativism American Party Believed in Nativism – the favoring of native born Americans over immigrants. “I Know Nothing” Became known as the Know-Nothing Party. Middle class, protestants, believed there was a conspiracy to overthrow the Democracy. Split over slavery Southerners looked for an alternative to the Democrats. Northerners turned to the Republican Party.

Free-Soil Party Northerners were Free-Soilers w/o being abolitionists. Supported laws prohibiting black settlement in white communities & denying blacks the right to vote. Objected to slavery b/c of its impact on white labor. Convinced that a conspiracy existed to spread slavery throughout the U.S.

Republican Party Northern Whigs, antislavery Democrats, & Free-Soilers formed the new Republican Party. Founder was Horace Greeley Opposed the Kansas-Nebraska Act Wanted to resurrect the Missouri Compromise Primary competition was the Know-Nothing Party b/c same target voters Sack of Lawrence, Pottawatomie Massacre, “Bleeding Kansas” gave the Republicans ammunition to challenge the Democrats
