Debt in Texas history?
After the many wars that Texas fought to gain their independence from Mexico they had alot of dept. Sam Houston was the first president of the Republic of Texas. He helped Texas get out of some of the dept but not all of it. Since each president could only have 2 years per term Sam Houston could not be elected again. The second president of Texas was M. B. Lamar, he however put Texas in more dept than what is was after Sam Houston's first term. After M. B. Lamar's 2 year term Sam Houston became the president of the Republic of Texas. Again Sam Houston helped Texas out of dept but not completely. The 4th term president of the Republic of Texas was Anson Jones. Jones was not president long before Texas became the 28th state of the Unites States. The United States helped Texas out of dept. When Texas wanted to be annexed be the United States some Americans refused because they didn't want to pay the dept that Texas was in. At some point Texas was annexed by the United States, and then became dept free.

What was the main thinking in many American's mind when they said no to Texas annexation?
First, I think many Americans did not want to deal with a new state that would become a slave state, due to the location of Texas. Also, politicians knew that, even though Texas declared its' independence, Mexico still considered the land a part of their territory. Annexing Texas while Mexico still considered it their land would be political turmoil. However, Texas was eventually annexed, leading to the Mexican-American War.
What was one of the reasons the US did not initially want to annex Texas?
The US was uneasy in annexing Texas because it would bring about an unbalance of power in the Senate between the North and the South who each wanted an equal number of representatives to side on with the issue of slavery. When Sam Houston beat Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna at San Jacinto he immediately applied for statehood but President Jackson feared the revival of the slavery issue. President Van Buren followed suit with Jackson and did not approve the annexation of Texas. The question of Texas, California and the New Mexican territory were increasingly prominent, and the sectional tension which they produced was destined to lead to the Civil War. President Tyler (a previous Whig whose political party had abandoned him) by means of a joint resolution which only required a simple majority was successful in getting Texas admitted to the Union in 184
