Was there a slave power conspiracy?

The "slave power conspiracy" was know as a threat the the critizens of America from their own freedom they believed that the slaves from the south would take over the territories and the new western states that were building u. == == EDIT:

Actually...that's not entirely true. The slaves wouldn't be the ones taking over. The biggest fear of the slave power was that the aristocracy of the southern plantation owners would slowly take over the democracy that had been developed in the North. Slavery was only part of the issue because the South was trying to spread its influence through the practice.

The Slave Power (sometimes referred to as the "Slaveocracy") was a term used in the Northern United States (primarily in the period 1840-1875) to characterize the political power of the slaveholding class in the South.
