Answer:
1. The central idea of the text is to present the reasons why the USA should prepare itself to face the Mexican army.
2. According to the text, the USA had a reason to go to war against Mexico.
Explanation:
The central idea of a text is the main subject that the text presents. In the case of the text shown above, we can see that this main issue is the need for the United States to prepare itself to face Mexico in a war. This can be seen from the fact that the author of the text says that Mexico is unfairly threatening Texans and that it is the duty of the USA to help Texans defend themselves against such an aggressive invasion. This can be seen in the lines "The invasion was threatened solely because Texas had determined to annex berset to our Union; and under these curcumstances, it was plainly our duty to extend our protection over her citizens and soil The Congress of Texas"
The text also shows that the USA has a reason to enter a war against Mexico, because Mexicans dared to cross the border, enter the USA illegally and kill American citizens.
The main way in which the sentiments of the Declaration of Independence were similar to those in the Articles of Confederation is that both documents wanted to make it impossible for a country or government to be tyrannical--this is why the Articles were so "weak"
The Marshall plan was a plan to give economic aid to countries that needed money to rebuild after the war. The idea behind the aid was that if the countries received money from the U.S. to rebuild then they were less likely to become communist countries and more likely to become democratic.
