LGD posted:also/or the Barbary wars Mexican-American War kind of hits that though it was more of a border skirmish that the US just took all the way to Mexico City because we've always been dicks. I'm kind of surprised we didn't just decide to annex Mexico outright since we grabbed like 1/3 of their territory with the peace treaty.

the Mexican-American war was understood at the time to be an imperial war of expansion, and all claims of Mexican aggression were paper thin.

WhiskeyJuvenile posted:Oh we're irredeemably hosed We could slice the US into 25 evenly populated district that cross state lines and have each one elect 2 senators, then get 2/3rd control of the house, presidency and 2/3rd democratic senators on board for aconstitunal amendment, then bribe the red state ones with a lifetime supply of hookers and blow and cabinet positions to convince them to abolish their own districts and have to run for re-election against a poo poo load of chuds in other states. Is that more or less accurate?
