Mexico obtained CA from Spain and governed the area until 1848 when the gold rush happened. The Mexican government did it's best to keep Americans out but the gold rush brought too many people in at once for them to handle. President Polk all ready was working on a way to take the area from Mexico when he sent John C. Fremont to survey the strength of the Mexican army/government. So, plans were in the working stage to take the state when the gold rush helped move things along.
