HENRY CLAY: THE GREAT COMPROMISER, PART IV
Henry Clay had his final chance at the White House in 1844, and lost in a close race. His fluctuating position on Texas probably cost him the election. He continued to serve his country with perhaps his greatest contribution, the Compromise of 1850. This was Clay's greatest accomplishment and saved the Union.
