The right answer is A - by sending unarmed supply ships to to the fort.

On April 4, 1861, Lincoln faced his first major crisis as president. Most of his cabinet members and senior military officers urged him to withdraw the troops from Fort Sumter to preserve peace. Lincoln, however, believed that giving up Fort Sumter would mean giving up the Union. So he ordered that ships be sent to Charleston to resupply the sixty-nine federal soldiers at Fort Sumter.  On April 4, 1861, Lincoln faced his first major crisis as president.

The fall of Fort Sumter started the Civil War and inflamed a wave of swagger across the Confederate states.

olga55 [171]

Its writers were worried about a concentration of political power is the right answer.

The system of checks and Balances is of much importance in the Tripartite form of government. In order to limit one branch from taking too much power, the constitutional committee set up a system of Check and Balance. Hence, all the three branches (the Legislative, the Executive and the Judicially) of the system are induced to share power.

jolli1 [7]

Therefore slavery is an example of an hypocrisy within the concept of what was claimed in the declaration of independence.
