Before Polk, the United States and Mexico had boundaries along the Rio Grande River. Texas and Polk claimed that America's southern border ran down to the river south of the United States' positon back then. They had a war, but Mexico lost and U.S kept expanding.
Hope this helps!
During Jackson's time, the common white man was giving the right to vote. During reconstruction ( the period after the civil war ) voting could no longer be denied on race or color because of the 15 the amendment, but still only applied to men. Women got the right to vote with the 19th amendment in 1920.
