American leader in the Mexican American War known as old fuss and feathers?
Winfield Scott, General U.S. Army who was also known as the Grand Old Man of the Army who had seen service from the War of 1812 to the US Civil War.
What do you think was the most important long term result of the Mexican-American war?
The most important long term result of the Mexican-American War wasn't the expansion of the United States by a third (if including Texas), but the experience gained by the American officers that fought in the war. I believe this because the same officers that fought in the Mexican-American War also fought in the American Civil War, which if it weren't for the Mexican-American War the officers in the Civil War might have had different tactics, which could have lead to a different outcome of the Civil War. This alternative outcome would have been the Southern United States successfully succeeding from the Union and the eventual takeover of the Northern and Southern United States by Britain, Spain, and France.
