Texas must be defended and liberty maintained. – Sam Houston, 1836

History
1 answer:
DerKrebs [107]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

This is an interesting and odd statement because it was Sam Houston who was also instrumental in the annexation of Texas in 1845.

Explanation:

Sam Houston was the leader of the Texan Army and helped to win independence from Mexico with victories like that at Battle of San Jacinto. Houston is a figure of Texan Independence but also of the annexation of Texas to the United States. Houston served as president of Texas twice. He was also elected to the Senate to represent Texas in 1846.  The whole quote is as follows: "There would be no difficulty in securing the rights of the people and the liberties of Texas if men would march to their duty and not fly like recreants from danger. Texas must be defended and liberty maintained." He was inciting others to join the cause for Texan independence.

What arguments do you think there were for carter's decision to grant amnesty to americans who had evaded the draft?
inysia [295]
As a candidate, Carter himself had said he advocated "pardon" (a term he preferred to amnesty).  He said, "I do advocate a pardon for draft evaders. ... Now is the time to heal our country after the Vietnam war. ... I hope to bring about an end to the divisiveness that has occurred in our country as a result of the Vietnam war."

On his second day in office, President Carter in fact did pardon draft dodgers. This applied only to civilians who evaded the draft.  It did not apply to active duty military personnel who went absent without leave (AWOL) or deserted their units during the war.
