I believe that the answer to this question would be "He believed secession was wrong under the Constitution"

The correct answer is C) He believed secession was wrong under the Constitution.

Andrew Johnson went against his native state of Tennessee when it seceded from the Union because He believed secession was wrong under the Constitution.

In June 1861, the state of Tennessee seceded from the Union. He didn't like the decision because he considered that under the Constitution, the states should be part of the Union. He was Senator of the state of Tennesse and then, governor. After the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, he became the 17th President of the United States and supported the right of the states.
