- Lenny,
- Try the area of the Baton Rouge revolt. What about Texas?--we gave up all
- claims by the Adams-Onis Treaty. Texans will get mad, but it is only through
- an "unequal treaty" [a popular word in this part of the world] that Santa
- Anna was forced to sign that Texas had legitimacy from 1836-1845. That treaty
- was not recognized by Mexico as being valid and they do not recognize Texas
- as part of the U. S. until the Treaty of Guadaloupe-Hidalgo in 1848.
