The Critics of President Polk thought that Attack on Mexico city could have been done earlier as doing so would have shortened the length of war.

Further explanation:  

The tensions between United States and Mexico grew in the period of 1840 as many American extremists were eying on Mexican land on the West of United states and that included Big Mexican province of that time, ‘California’. In year 1842, Navy fleet of United States believed that war has broken out between both the countries and with that thought they seized Monterey, California but later they found out that war never broke out between these countries and Monterey was returned to Mexico next day after the seize. But after this attack, Tensions grew between United States and Mexico as Mexicans were sure that there can be war with United Sates any day in the near future. In the Presidential elections of 1844, The Americans elected James Polk as the President of the country and one of the major reasons of his victory was that James Polk had promised to deliver more lands to American people once he gets elected and he fulfilled his promises which he made during elections by gaining authority over Oregon and provoking war with Mexico in order to gain access to California. Many people still think that decision related to war with Mexico could have been take bit earlier because doing so would have shortened the length of war.

<span>Critics believe that President Polk used the threat of force to force Mexico to concede all rights to the Texas territory and possibly even more land. America was still expanding and needed more land to do so. The president was already attempting to purchase California, so showing that we could take Texas furthered his goal there as well. Settlers in Texas feared loss of their land. So the president was cajoling Mexico into forgoing all rights.</span>
