When Adams appointed Henry Clay, who had supported his candidacy, as Secretary of State, it fueled accusations of a "corrupt bargain" between the two. Adams' presidency was hindered by this accusation as well as rising sectionalism over high tariffs and a lack of congressional support, and he served only one term.
