In 1847, the Massachusetts legislature passed a resolution, written by Charles Sumner, opposing the war with Mexico. This is an

excerpt from the resolution.
“Resolved, That the present war with Mexico has its primary origin in the unconstitutional annexation to the United States of the foreign State of Texas, while the same was still at war with Mexico; that it was unconstitutionally commenced by the order of the President, to General Taylor, to take military possession of territory in dispute between the United States and Mexico, and in the occupation of Mexico; and that it is now waged ingloriously—by a powerful nation against a weak neighbor—unnecessarily and without just cause, at immense cost of treasure [money] and life, for the dismemberment of Mexico, and for the conquest of a portion of her territory, from which slavery has already been excluded, with the triple object of extending slavery, of strengthening the “Slave Power,” and of obtaining the control of the Free States, under the constitution of the United States.…”

Document B:
“America is destined for better deeds. We have no interest in the scenes of antiquity, only as lessons of avoidance of nearly all other examples. The expansive future is our arena, and for our history. We are entering on its untrodden space, with the truths of God in our minds, beneficent objects in our hearts, and with a clear conscience unsullied by the past. We are the nation of human progress, and who will, what can, set limits to our onward march? Providence is with us, and no earthly power can. We point to the everlasting truth on the first page of our national declaration, and we proclaim to the millions of other lands, that “the gates of hell”- the powers of aristocracy and monarchy- “shall not prevail against it. Who, then, can doubt that our country is destined to be the great nation of futurity?”
(John L. Sullivan, Manifest Destiny, 1839)

What are some problems facing the albany congress
stealth61 [152]
<span> The Albany Congress was a not unimportant event in the history of Albany. The Albany meeting site pointed up Albany's function as the last outpost of European-style civilization before the frontier - a place where settlers, officials, and native peoples had and would continue to come together to consider items of mutual concern. Among the agendas for the convention, was a plan to replace provincial Indian Commissioners with a Royal Superintendant of Indian Affairs - which was aimed directly at the Albany Indian commissioners who were seen by the British as self-interested merchants whose core ambitions were antagonist to Imperial policy.

The Albany Congress met in Albany from June 19 to July 11, 1754. Holding daily meetings at the City Hall, official delegates from seven colonies considered strategies for Indian diplomacy and put forth the so-called Albany Plan of Union.

Unsure of its authority to participate, the province of New York sent only an unnofficial delegation which included Lieutenant Governor James De Lancey and two men with strong Albany connections, William Johnson and Peter Wraxall. The Mohawks and other Native groups were represented at the meetings as well</span>

Which best described the battlefield situation faced by the Americans at the Battle of San Juan Hill?
nexus9112 [7]

America faces many challenges before even reaching San Juan Hill such as 500 villagers fighting off the Americans. Another thing that proved to be difficult was the Spanish shooting down hundreds of American soldiers. However these issues are overcome in the result of capturing Kettle Hill as well as San Juan Hill. All in all, the challenges the Americans faced were due in part to the Spanish defenders of the village and the Spanish artillery.
