Which statement BEST explains how the near 36% population gain in the United States between 1840 and 1850 led to the Compromise of 1850?

A
The acquisition of new territories, new states, and the influx of new immigrants negatively impacted the slave and free-state balance that had been previously determined by the Missouri Compromise. A new Compromise was required.

B
The census of 1850 sought to correctly count slaves as full persons and thus increase the southern states’ Congressional representation. The Compromise of 1850 prevented this because of pressure from the northern states.

C
The pace of population growth between 1840 and 1850 required the U.S. Congress to revisit the protocols for the collection of census data. The new protocols were incorporated into the Compromise of 1850.

D
Since the greatest increase in population was within the northern states, the southern states demanded new rules to protect their rights to own slaves, hence, the Compromise of 1850.

Read the excerpt from a 1965 speech by President Lyndon B. Johnson.

To this end, equal opportunity is essential, but not enough, not enough. Men and women of all races are born with the same range of abilities. But ability is not just the product of birth. Ability is stretched or stunted by the family that you live with and the neighborhoods you live in, by the school you go to and the poverty or the richness of your surroundings. It is the product of a hundred unseen forces playing upon the little infant, the child, and finally the man. . . .

. . . Negroes are trapped, as many whites are trapped, in inherited, gateless poverty. They lack training and skills. They are shut in, in slums, without decent medical care. Private and public poverty combine to cripple their capacities.

We are trying to attack these evils through my poverty program, through our education program, through our medical care and our other health programs, and a dozen more of the Great Society programs that are aimed at the root causes of this poverty.

–Howard University commencement address,
Lyndon B. Johnson
