SHE HAS LEFT THE CITIES OF THE EAST BEHIND, AND THE WIDE MISSISSIPPI, AND STILL HER COURSE IS WESTWARD. IN HER RIGHT HAND SHE CARRIES A SCHOOL BOOK-- TESTIMONIAL OF THE NATIONAL ENLIGHTENMENT, WHILE WITH HER LEFT SHE TRAILS THE SLENDER WIRES OF THE TELEGRAPH THAT WILL BIND THE NATION. FLEEING HER APPROACH ARE INDIANS, BUFFALO, WILD HORSES, BEARS, AND OTHER GAME, DISAPPEARING INTO THE STORM AND WAVES OF THE PACIFIC COAST. THEY FLEE THE WONDEROUS VISION--THE STAR "IS TOO MUCH FOR THEM."Slide3

Closure: Text Analysis
The Monroe Doctrine (1823) On December 2, 1823, President James Monroe sent a message to Congress stating that the continents of North and South America shall never again ``be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers.'' He also made it clear that the United States would consider any attempt by European nations to interfere in the affairs of any country of the Western Hemisphere as a direct threat to the peace and safety of the United States. What does this mean? Did Monroe have the right to do this? Does the US have the right and/or responsibility to act as an international "big brother"?Speaker:
