Henry Clay, Sr. (April 12, 1777 – June 29, 1852) was an American lawyer, politician, and skilled orator who represented Kentucky in both the United States Senate and House of Representatives. He served three non-consecutive terms as Speaker of the House of Representatives and was also Secretary of State from 1825 to 1829. Clay ran for the presidency several times, but lost each election.
Clay was a very dominant figure in both the First and Second Party systems. As a leading war hawk in 1812, he favored war with Britain and played a significant role in leading the nation to war in the War of 1812. In 1824 he ran for president and lost, but maneuvered House voting in favor of John Quincy Adams, who made him Secretary of State. Opposing candidate Andrew Jackson denounced the actions of Clay and Adams as part of a "corrupt bargain." Clay ran for president again, and lost the general election in 1832, as the candidate of the National Republican Party, and in 1844 as the candidate of the Whig Party. He was a strong proponent of the American System, fighting for an increase in tariffs to foster industry in the United States, the use of federal funding to build and maintain infrastructure, and a strong national bank. He opposed the annexation of Texas and "Manifest Destiny" policy of Democrats, fearing it would inject the slavery issue into politics. This cost him votes in the close presidential election of 1844. Clay later opposed the Mexican-American War.
The term American System can mean one of the following:

A brief biography of Henry Clay, the senator from Kentucky, and his economic plan, the American System.
Matthew Chambers is chairman, CEO and founder of Confederate Motor Company, Inc. Chambers earned a bachelor of arts in business administration from Louisiana Status University in 1975, and went on to receive a juris doctorate degree from LSU in 1978. On January 1, 1979, Chambers began a 13 year career as a solo practitioner of law in Baton Rouge. In 1990, Chambers won the largest verdict of his career in a police brutality case. The verdict represented the largest ever granted in the state of Louisiana against a sheriff's parish agency. Next, idle meditation yielded an idea informed by a lust for American hot rods which began in the 1950's. An avant-garde American industrial and mechanical design initiative was envisioned. The roots of rugged principled individuality would again form an i...
