1. What justified the annexation of Texas, according to Cazneau? 2. How did “immigration” figure into Cazneau’s reasoning? 3. Let us use our historical imaginations for a moment. How might Cazneau have reacted had many Mexicans immigrated into, say, the states of Louisiana and Arkansas, and then declared the independence of the region, before it would be annexed to Mexico by the Mexican government? Do you think for, or against? Why so? |
