right
Complete the sentence.
According to the platform, the Democratic Party ___ Manifest Destiny.
supported
neither supported or opposed
opposed
Answer:
supported
Explanation:
Part of the idea behind manifest destiny is that the U.S. was entitled to all of the land surrounding the country at the time. That included the territory of Oregon, and Texas, which had not become a state yet. The statement claiming that "our title to the whole of the Territory of Oregon is clear and unquestionable, and the annexation of Texas......is important to American progress". shows that whoever is speaking, has a firm belief in the entitlement of the U.S. to the surrounding land, exactly what manifest destiny is.
Answer:
Supported.
Explanation:
The Manifest Destiny was the belief that it was it was the American's obligated right to expand westward. Therefore, if the Democratic Party had won the election, most likely, as long as the Manifest Destiny was popular and supported, it would translate to support to the party that projected that viewpoint.
According to the platform, the Democratic Party supported the Manifest Destiny.
