Why could polk honestly say that he had become president '' without solicitation on his part?

History
1 answer:
Mademuasel [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

In the general election, Polk ran against U.S. Senator Henry Clay (1777-1852), a Kentuckian and a founder of the Whig Party. The Whigs used the campaign slogan “Who is James K. Polk?”–an allusion to the fact that Polk was not well known outside the world of politics. However, Polk’s expansionist platform favoring the annexation of Texas appealed to voters. He narrowly won the presidency with 49.5 percent of the popular vote and an electoral margin of 170-105.

*Hope this helps

How did the conquest of new lands most directly contribute to economic growth?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The conquest of new lands directly contributed to the economic growth of nations since through territorial expansion new territories were acquired that included within themselves enormous amounts of natural resources.

Thus, for example, the territorial expansion of Spain during the conquest of America allowed the Spanish Empire access to precious metals and different grains that contributed to the economic development of the nation and the well-being of its citizens.

Another example is that of the United States, which after the annexation of California was able to exploit the enormous gold reserves that were in the territory of the State.

Was the deal struck between the Republicans and Democrats in the Election of 1876 fair or unfair? Who got the better deal?
Katarina [22]
An informal deal was struck to resolve the dispute: the Compromise of 1877, which awarded all 20 electoral votes to Hayes; in return for the Democrats' acquiescence to Hayes' election, the Republicans agreed to withdraw federal troops from the South, ending Reconstruction.
