The correct answer is E) supporters of slavery

The Mexican American War as a major conflict between the US and Mexico. It started because there were many Americans that moved to Texas, that was a part of Mexico at that time. Texas wanted independence because Mexico did not allow slavery and Texas wanted to be a pro-slavery state.

Texas wanted to be annexed to the US but some were against it because at that time there was already the confrontation between free states and slave states.

President John Tyler won the presidential race and approved the annexation of Texas and as a result of this, Mexico broke off relations with the US.

The major problem started with the definition of the border between Mexico and the US. War broke off, and pro-slavery people wanted more territory - New Mexico and California - which would allow them new slavery states and get the majority of slave states in the Union.
