By 1854, that's precisely what the federal government was getting around to. Popular sovereignty. Every new state was going to be allowed to vote if slavery would be permitted, which was what southerners actually wanted. They were going to try out this idea starting in Kansas, and people came into there and started killing each other. It ended up culminating in what was essentially a gang war, as advocates of both sides came in to establish residency and secure a majority to win the vote. It didn't work.
Because of Manifest Destiny, war was inevitable. That's the reason the United States had to have a war to settle the slavery question and nobody else did.
