Thank you @Vocaloid -

Anyways, from the updated list, we can go over each answer choice with the process of elimination.
Even though he was a slaveholder, Clay disapproved of slavery and didn't support it. So, therefore, A and B are both incorrect. He even played a major role in formulating the three landmark sectional compromises during his era; the Missouri Compromise of 1820, the Tariff Compromise of 1833, and the Compromise of 1850. Clay served as either a Congressman or Senator intermittently from 1806 until his death in 1852 often resigning to run for President. Clay unsuccessfully ran for president three times: in 1824, 1832 and in 1844. SO given that, C would be your answer: A great orator who was nicknamed “the Great Compromiser”
