PROCLAMATION.-BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: There is reason to believe that an armed expedition is about to be fitted out in the United States with the intention to invade the Island of Cuba, or some of the provinces of Mexico; the best information which the Executive has been able to obtain, points to the Island of Cuba as the object of this expedition. It is the duty of this Government to observe the faith of treaties, and to prevent any aggression by our citizens upon the territories of friendly nations. I have therefore thought it necessary and proper to issue this proclamation to warn all citizens who shall connect themselves with an enterprise so grossly in violation of our treaty obligations that they will thereby subject themselves to the heavy penalty denounced against them by our acts of Congress, and will forfeit their claim to the protection of their country. No such persons must expect the interference of this Government in any form in their behalf, no matter to what extremities they may be reduced, in consequence of their conduct. The enterprise to invade the territories of a friendly nation, set on foot and prosecuted within the limits of the United States, is in the highest degree criminal, as tending to endanger the peace and compromise the honor of the nation. And therefore I expect all good citizens, as they regard our national reputation, as they respect our laws, and laws of other nations, as they value the blessing of peace and the welfare of their country, to discourage and prevent, by all lawful means, any such enterprise, and I call upon every officer of this Government, civil or military, to use all efforts in his power to arrest for trial and punish every such offender against the laws providing for the performance of our sacred obligation to friendly powers. Given under my hand the 11th day of August, in the year our Lord 1849, and 74th of the independence of the United States.” ZACHARY TAYLOR, President ; J.M Clayton Secretary of State -From the book, “The War with Mexico reviewed”, By Abiel Livermore

And 10 days after the President's assassination President Lyndon B. Johnson called her up and tried to solicit sex from her.

Good 👍

Why do people from other parts of the US think Southerners are backwards. Just look at this Southern Revisionist Bozo.

If Kennedy were a Republican would this have been civil? Probably not. Progressivism was George Wallace. Surprise! Take notice liberal mayors. Will you go to jail for illegal alien criminals? Try us.

Thank God the US intervened and thank God for Wessin y Wessin

The President was right.

Governor George Wallace stood on the wrong side of history.

What the sigma

En español no en inglés 😠😡🤬

he doesn't need a bible or had sisters & fiancee'? Nathan.

Wilson ike jfk

Forrest Gump bought me here

In Finland after the refugee crisis, the introduction of negroes to the school and other people of ither races have made the learning enviornment worse. I am sad to see that the segregation in American schools ended and segregation in general. From my own experiences I have come to the conclusion that segregation helps everyone it conserns

it's embarrassing how the yanks try to brag this fight, it was a nowhere near it, guerriere was out gunned out manned putting out half the weight of shot the only thing that was in their favour was the massive bollox they had, the yanks trying to play constitution of as a 44 gun 5th rate equivalent,,, it was 175ft about the same as a British 74gun 3rd rate and was pierced for up to 62 guns, and probably carried more than that, getting excited that guerrieres carronades didn't punch through like they were special. it's all just a propaganda exercise believing their own b/s, the only fair fight the yank frigates had was the Shannon, and Shannon was outgunned and won

jeez was this video made in 1947?

The dramatic music, lol!

"My sad duty ...": This was being diplomatic and respectful, not a personal complaint from the General. Wallace was Governor. This tactful statement allowed him to depart peacefully, without struggle or losing face. There"s no hidden meaning, as some comments are implying. The General came from Kennedy, the Commander in Chief. Maybe he was sad to see integration aka human rights getting helped in Alabama, but there's no evidence of that here or reason to think so. Those words were carefully scripted.

Sounds like Ronnie. Who Democrats hated. They hated JFK. Hence what happened to him. JFK also hated Communism.

And our people still wanna send their kids here, not me!

thats so sigma

My ancestors

Thanks 🙏

now i understand

Thanks for this awesome video on the history of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. My great ancestors were Anthony Colby and his wife Suzanna Anthony helped found Amesburry and Salisbury MA as well as other surrounding towns around the area. Most of my My family still reside in Massachusetts ❤

Buchanan, the undeserved scapegoat for other shitty presidents since 1861 (in the sense that he shouldn't be seen so much as the worst president in history).

Im conviced all these guys shared the same vocal chords

I MOURN as I learn the history of this land. Deep mourning....was it all in vain...?

Came here to check if Forrest really was there

They knew the boat was neutral in the conflict and they knew it was not carrying any Chinese Nationalist Troops. Even when they boarded the ship shortly before the premeditated bombing, they already knew. The ship was carrying refugees, American refugees, not military personnel. America was not ready yet for war, but began to prepare after this atrocity. Some Americans could see what was coming. Japan made no mistake about it as they had been expanding for the previous 5 years. This was like Hitlers expansion in Europe.

My mom went to school in Auburn when he was governor in the 80s she was so confused why he was in office because all she knew was this video a guy not wanting people in the schools because they were a different race

American nationalistic mythmaking. The first major war where railroads played a critical role was the war in Italy in 1859, where the French moved much larger forces, much quicker than any railroad move during the civil war.

Nuts

So basically nothing happened

SAD is that president John F Kennedy was killed :(, not that a racist man had to step aside from the entrance of a public university that received money from african american tax payers as well.

LOVE IT! I was not even born but I love President Kennedy for this and other many things ♥

You show a portrait of Martin Van Buren every time you mention John Quincy Adams. Please fix this.

We need to do this to protect the Jews now.....2024

So nice of her

Wow 🤯

God bless the 12th North Carolina my ancestors served he was there victory God save the South

HI. Thanks for this. I think the boat at 2:20 is not the right one though. Verrazano's boat had three masts. This is a boat from the 18th century I guess.

HOLY SHIT THIS IS BORING

Easy peasy?😭

Thank you for your testimony.. God be with you as he was then. Be strong..i love "survived to bear wittness". Yes you surely did. 😢

Eye remember this ..in Tuscaloosa Alabama my hometown

Easy peasyyy

Hardest moment in US history

I love Buchanan.Remember a lot of northern folk simply wanted to let the south go.No sane person ever wants war.Buchanan was instrumental in America purchasing Alaska.He built up our fleet.Buchanan never condemned any young men to death.His successor however did 600,000 of them.
