We delve into his support of the Sam Houston faction and the implications of the Texas annexation officially becoming official in January 1846. Don Frazier explains the controversies related to the doctor certifications; the differences between the traditional immigrants and the Germans coming into places like New Braunfels and Fredericksburg. We then review the relationship between Mexico and Texas in the larger context of Republicanism.
