Mirabeau Lamar opposed annexation to the United States primarily because he believed it would undermine Texas's sovereignty and independence. He cherished the idea of a distinct Texan identity and feared that joining the U.S. would lead to the domination of Texas by American interests. Additionally, Lamar was concerned about the potential impact on Texas's land policies and the institution of slavery, which he wanted to protect. He envisioned Texas as a powerful, independent republic rather than a state within the Union.
