The correct answer is B) the status of slavery in the Mexican Cession.

Clay's speech foreshadows the congressional debate over the status of slavery in the Mexican Cession.

As the leader of the Whig Party, Henry Clay (1777-1852) became one of the most prominent political figures of his time. He was Secretary of State and Speaker of the House of Representatives. He was a charismatic Senator that knew how to relate with people to convey his messages.

In a speech delivered in 1847 about the Mexican-American War, he foreshadowed the issue of slavery and how this issue could divide the country even more.

Henry Clay supported the idea of gradually ending slavery in the United States and relocating former slaves so they could start to live a different life.
