Some Americans thought that making California a part of the US would strengthen the security of the nation because there was going to be fewer war threats by adding more territory.

Explanation

They believed that it would protect them more from war threats because California provided a coastline to protect the country, which added more territory. Having the control of it, they could build a defense against other countries who would want to invade from the west side.

In addition, California's natural resources such as silver, gold, and fertile soil were very important for the nation, which was in a growing process.

What were President Kennedy's hopes for the March on Washington?
QveST [7]

The correct answer is - that it would be a mild and peaceful protest.

President Kennedy was hoping that the March on Washington would be a mild and peaceful one. On the other hand, he was fearing that the March on Washington will be an aggressive one and end up very badly. Because of his fears, he met with the organizers of the protest in order to reassure him that they will not cause any violence, and that they will try to keep the things in control so that there's no violence. The leaders of the protest were reassuring the president that they have no intentions of being violent, bu that they want their voices to be heard, and the African Americans to be treated the same way as the other people in the country, to have their rights, and the racism to be put in the past.
