President Polk, fighting the Pig War with Great Britain over Oregon without victory, was a sign of failure to uphold the covenant. The country was exposed to public ridicule because the war only ended with the signing of a treaty (a form of compromise), which ceded the whole of Vancouver to Britain and then Oregon to the US.
