Answer:

d) They didn't want to allow another slave state into the country.

Explanation:

The United States went to war against Mexico over the issue of Texas independence from Mexico, and subsequent annexation to the United States, a position that was supported by most of its inhabitants (including those of Mexican descent, also known as Tejanos).

However, the problem was that if Texas was admitted to the United States, it would become a slave state. The Eastern Part of Texas has the same climate and geography as Louisiana or Mississippi, and therefore, large slave plantations could be started there, and the annexation of Texas would then mean that the delicate balance between Free States and Slave States would break in favor of the slaves states. This is essentially what made Congress doubt about going to war with Mexico.

Which power does the U.S. Constitution give the president?
ella [17]

How does the lost cause affect us today in the US
Delvig [45]
The Lost Cause of the Confederacy, or simply the Lost Cause, is an American pseudo-historical,[1][2] negationist ideology that advocates the belief that the cause of the Confederate States during the American Civil War was heroic, just, and not centered on slavery.[3] This ideology has furthered the belief that slavery was moral, because the enslaved were happy, even grateful, and it also brought economic prosperity. The notion was used to perpetuate racism and racist power structures during the Jim Crow era in the American South.[4] It emphasizes the supposed chivalric virtues of the antebellum South. It thus views the war as a struggle primarily waged to save the Southern way of life[5] and to protect "states' rights", especially the right to secede from the Union. It casts that attempt as faced with "overwhelming Northern aggression". It simultaneously minimizes or completely denies the central role of slavery and white supremacy in the build-up to, and outbreak of, the war.[4]

Effectus [21]
This is opinionated...
The world solely dense on fossil fuels. In 2011 fossil fuels accounted for approximate 82 percent of the worlds primary energy use. The use of fossil fuels is expected to be on a decline by 2040 but that doesn’t mean we can keep the environment safe while trading. We need fossil fuels to help deliver good and/or services around the world to build bonds with other countries. So no, we cannot protect the earths environment while expanding trade around the world.
