The correct answers are B) Fillmore, C) Buchanan, E) Pierce.

The three weak presidents that had much to do with bringing about the Civil War between 1848–60 were Fillmore, Buchanan, Pierce.

We are talking about the three US Presidents before the beginning of the American Civil War: Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, and James Buchanan. These presidents could not have the political talent and skills to resolve the complicated issues that started to grow and grow about slavery and territory, to the point of increasing the conflicts and crises between the Northern and southern states.
