"We have not sought to extend our territorial possessions by conquest, or our republican institutions over a reluctant people. I

t was the deliberate homage of each people to the great principle of our federative union. If we consider the extent of territory involved in the annexation, its prospective influence on America, the means by which it has been accomplished, springing purely from the choice of the people themselves to share the blessings of our union, the history of the world may be challenged to furnish a parallel … We may rejoice that the tranquil and pervading influence of the American principle of self-government was sufficient to defeat the purposes of British and French interference … From this example European Governments may learn how vain diplomatic arts and intrigues must ever prove upon this continent against that system of self-government which seems natural to our soil, and which will ever resist foreign interference."—James Polk, from the State of the Union Address, December 2, 1845

Property should be held in common is one of whose basic belief?
Margarita [4]
This is one of the basic beliefs of the Mormons

They are a church based on Christianity which was found by Joseph Smith. He believed that property should be owned commonly and not by individuals because people wouldn't be greedy then. This also applied to marriage since polygamy was encouraged so as to prevent only one person having access to something.

How did hobbes and locke differ in their views on the role of government?
storchak [24]
Thomas Hobbes thought that all humans were naturally selfish and greedy, and needed the power of an absolute ruler to hold them back. He thought that the people should obey the rulers every word. Locke said that a true government was meant to protect all natural rights of a person, and that the people had to have a voice in government. He was against the monarchy, because he believed that it was not protecting the natural rights of the people, and reversely, going against them.

9. How do you think Robert Kennedy felt during this meeting? Provide evidence.
Helen [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question does not provide any reference to the kind of meeting it is talking about or any reference at all, we can say that it refers to the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962. Robert Kennedy had meetings with USSR leaders to negotiate and avoid what was imminently coming, a war confrontation between the two superpowers. I think Robert Kennedy felt tense and nervous during the meeting because he had told Russian leader Khrushchev that the United States would slowly remove its missiles in Turkey, if the Soviet Union would remove its missiles from the Island of Cuba, that is 90 miles south the Florida peninsula. Those were tense and critic moments in which the world was on the brink of another world war.
