No. I don’t think that we had the right to be in the Philippines in the first place. We had no claim on the Philippines and the inhabitants didn’t want us to be there. WE ahould have either a) left them to Spain and not fought there at all, or, b)freed them from Spain and granted them their independence.

I think that the distortion of facts that helped cause the Spaniish American war was definitely present in this election. No one really knew what Obama stood for. Many of those voting for him had/have entirely different ideas about the change Obama is going to bring.
