Answer:

by igniting debate over the expansion of slavery

Explanation:

Manifest Destiny refers to a 19th century idea that the American way of life and its institutions were special and had no equal in the world, and that the people from the United States had an almost divine mission to spread their values across the continent. This idea supported expansionism, especially towards the western areas of the North American landmass.

Manifest Destiny, however, was a deeply controversial idea, especially because of the division between northern industrial states and southern slave holding states. Northern states opposed the expansion of slavery, as they feared that every new territory added to the southern United States would tip the delicate balance between north and south. After the annexation of Texas in 1845 and the invasion and annexation of the northern territories of Mexico in 1848, public opinion gradually shifted towards opposition against Manifest Destiny, as it was now inevitably linked with the expansion of slavery. The north-south division grew over time, culminating in the Civil War (1861-1865).

I think that you might have to focus on two particular elements in your analysis.  The first would be the argument, itself.  What is used to support the thesis being advocated?  What facts in evidence is submitted?  How cogent and coherent is the overall argument?  It might require you to sketch out the basic argument and the subpoints used to defend or support it.  I think that the next level you will have to undergo would be to analyze how the argument is written and how it is presented?  Addressing the tone of the article, as well as the word choice and how it is presented in terms of persuasion will be involved here.   I would like to suggest another source that might help with your study here.  Danica McKellar has written some excellent work on the gender bias in mathematics.  I would examine her arguments and study her tone and word choice in order to increase your background knowledge of the field.

Which case allowed the Supreme Court to claim the power of judicial review (the authority to declare a law unconstitutional)?
Snezhnost [94]
It was the landmark case "Marbury vs. Madison" that allowed the Supreme Court to claim the power of judicial review (the authority to declare a law unconstitutional), since this now acts as one of the major "checks" the court has on the legislative branch.
