President Polk begins his speech to state that his efforts to establish good relationships with Mexico were rejected. The Mexicans went off to attack some nearby settlements in America. John Slidell was the cause of this action because peace was accepted with America until he arrived to Mexico. Under General Herrera, the Mexicans denied Sidell violently and was rejected. Under General Paredas, Sidell was again rejected at any chance of resolving situations. Sidell came home with no success which fired Polk up to send troops into Mexico which were at first for security. In the end, Polk cared about his countries freedom only and wanted to fight back.
