How else could American could have grown? Look at what we did to the native Americans? We really liberated many social groups from hostility and racial abuse worse then what we showed the population. But don't feel sorry for the Mexicans look at what the did and are doing to the native people. Mark my word before you die you'll see armed uprising in Mexico.

Mexican/Amercian war of 1848? Like remember the ALAMO?
As far as I am concerned- NO. We got Texas out of it.
BIG DEAL! Cede Crawford Texas back to Mexico and erect a really high fence around it.

Sure! ask the people of Calif, Ariz, New Mex, Utah, Texas, ect. These states are because of this war. If you are asking if it was right well, Hell no!! It was just another example of how American leaders "bully" other countries into submission. We wanted that territory, they wouldn't sell it to us so our govt. took it!! politics as usual!!

Yes it was worth it. Considering Mexico got all their land via conquest, they really have no right to cry when they lose it via conquest.

Sometimes I wonder if we shouldn't just go ahead and annex Mexico. They're all moving up here anyway.

Which one?
Before or after Texas became a republic.
edit:
And it was for more than just Texas.
