dream of Manifest Destiny
By the end of the war with Mexico, many would say that the dream of Manifest Destiny had been fulfilled. Consider the impact that this has had on the government of the United States and all of the people that live within her borders (up until 1877). In this essay, I want you to make an argument that the fulfillment of our Manifest Destiny has been fundamentally good or fundamentally bad. Clearly, it has been both, but you must focus on one side of this argument and present evidence (examples of events, laws, people, etc.) to back up or support your position. Be specific with your examples (evidence), and be sure to explain exactly how your examples help to prove your point. Your argument (that Manifest Destiny has been fundamentally good or bad) must have at lease THREE supporting examples (your evidence)
