    During the debate over California statehood, the vice president of the United States, John Calhoun, refused to compromise regarding the expansion of slavery.

    It happened due to the fact that he considered slavery a "positive good" (using his words). His position had the support of a segment of society and had consequences that even influenced the civil war, later to come.
