What was the campaign issues when Zachary Taylor ran for president?
Probably the biggest issue of the day had to do with the huge amount of land the United States had acquired over the previous few years and whether or not slavery would be allowed to spread west into the new territories. The new land was acquired through three different sources:One was the annexation of Texas, which had declared its independence from Mexico about a decade earlier but had been requesting to become part of the United States.Another was the HUGE part of Mexico that was ceded to the United States for $15,000,000 after Mexico lost the Mexican-American War (Mexico used to border Oregon).The third was gaining sole possession of the southern half of the Oregon Country in exchange for giving Great Britain sole possession of the northern half. Previously the United States and Great Britain shared possession of the Oregon Country.
