Correct. The answer is b. Beveridge justified his call to “follow the flag” by appealing to arguments that emphasized American exceptionalism, calling Americans “God’s chosen people” and characterizing them as “a people sprung from the most masterful blood of history; a people perpetually revitalized by the virile, man-producing working-folk of all the earth; a people imperial by virtue of their power, by right of their institutions, by authority of their Heaven-directed purposes—the propagandists and not the misers of liberty.”

Correct. The answer is c. Liliuokalani was referring to the resident American sugarcane planters who secretly organized the Annexation Club in 1892. With the help of U.S. Marines, this group overthrew the queen and then negotiated a treaty of annexation.

After Dewey’s victory in Manila, however, Hawaii gained strategic value as a halfway, and in July 1898, Congress voted for annexation.
