The anti-imperialists have faith in that the Filipinos
should not be seized into the United States, and that they should be their own,
free country. In 1776, that is when the colonies formally professed their freedom
from Britain and started their battle for freedom. The Anti-Imperialist League did
not believe Abraham Lincoln would have supported –the annexation of the
Philippines because the Filipinos do not want to be a portion of the United
States, and it is said in Lincoln’s speech that no man should be ruled with his
accord.
<span>Abraham Lincoln onced stated no man is good enough to govern another man without that other's consent. When the white man governs himself, that is self-government, but when he governs himself and also governs another man, that is more than self-government-that is despotism. Therefore the Anti-Imperialist League did not believe that Lincoln would have supported the Annexation of the Phillippines.</span>
When Charles John Davids proposed to Madison Al Newert 3/4/1884 somewhere in Africa. And when Jesus Christ said good morrow to James Heartyfult 19/6/2004. Just off the top of my head.
