Polk is not a well-known President, possibly because, it seems to me, the Mexican-American War is not taught much in American schools. What little that I have heard puts Polk in a poor light, because of his connection with the War. I would like to know the facts of the matter.

Huh? Oh that's right, it wasn't fought in your state so it wasn't covered there.
Trust me when I say the M-A war was covered in detail in all our schools. And one of my ancestors was one of the big generals of that war.
