I’m listening to a course from the Teaching Company entitled “A History of American Foreign Policy.” Tonight I learned that the Monroe Doctrine was actually written by Monroe’s Secretary of State John Quincy Adams.
I also learned that when President Tyler called for the annexation of Texas, it only passed the Senate by two votes. Just think, if only two Senators had switched their votes, we would have been rid of that canker south of Oklahoma.
