Explanation:
The sentence shown in the question above was used by President Tyler as a way to justify Hawaii's annexation to American territory. To justify this desire, he promotes a prejudiced view of Hawaii and Hawaiians, comparing them with barbarians and presenting the territory as a place of weak and disorganized government.
