The main reason that the Constitution did not proclaim all men to be free and equal is because of the issue of slavery. Many of the Founding Fathers were slaveowners, including George Washington. The Founding Fathers did not want to lose the support of southern states when it came time to ratify the Constitution.

During the 1850s, what congressional action led to sectional tensions and the formation of a new political party

Mazyrski [523]

I think the answer would be the Compromise of 1850 that led to sectional tensions and the formation of a new political party. It was a package of five separate bills passed by the United States Congress in September 1850, which defused a four-year political confrontation between slave and free states regarding the status of territories acquired.
