In the passage from “the annexation of hawaii: a right and a duty,” which of the author’s claims would be most likely to persuade nations outside the united states to accept the validity of hawaii's annexation by the united states? the united states has traded with, sent missionaries to, and practically controlled hawaii for the last 50 years. the geographic location of hawaii is closer to the united states than to any other nation. the laws of the united states specify its right to receive additions to its territories. the government of hawaii has made the offer of annexation to the united states. part b which statement from the passage best supports the answer to part a? “according to our laws and according to our national policy and practice, there can be no doubt that our government has the power to make a lawful acceptance of the proffered annexation.” (paragraph 2) “the offer is made to us by the government of hawaii of its own motion, a government fully established and recognized by the united states and the other nations of the world as in the actual and rightful control of its people.” (paragraph 3) “they are so far americanized now that annexation will be but one step further, and the great emigration from this country thither which would immediately follow annexation soon would complete the work of their assimilation to our ways and institutions.” (paragraph 7) “ever since hawaii became known to the civilized world, our statesmen have contended that our interests there were paramount to those of all other nations, that we could not permit colonization or the exercise of control there by other countries, and that we favored the independence of the islands, but if their independence could not be maintained, then their ultimate destiny must be in our hands.” (paragraph 8)
