The Mexican war was mainly a war that President Polk wanted in effort to obtain more land for the United States. The people who wanted the war were mostly Democrats and Southerners. Southerners supported the war because they were in hope that more land would be acquired meaning more states would be admitted into the union as slave states. For this same reason the Whig Party opposed the war because they were abolitionists. Abolitionists opposed slavery so with the addition of new slave states, their hopes of making the U.S a slave free country were thwarted. Abolitionists such as Members from the Whig party stated that the war was unnecessary since we all ready had enough land.
The main reason the United States did not take all of Mexico in the Mexican War was because the North quickly realized that the South would gain many new slave states and it w â¦ ould be much more powerful in Congress. The North prevented any new states south of Texas.2 people found this useful.nd Manifest Destiny was likely part of the picture. Mexico was not developing the Southwest, but Mexico's refusal to sell the land prevented the US from gaining a firm hold on the Pacific coast. and they wanted to find gold.
