To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Executive is as much authorized to act in the case of danger as in that of actuality; and the State power to " engage in war" is, in like man- ner, marked by this distinction. The President's is an extreme power, no doubt, to be most carefully exercised. President Polk is a prudent man, and was alive to the dread responsibility of his situa- tion. It was much easier for me to advise than for him to do what I advised over the Bravo. But I submit, far in advance of the question of bound- ary ...with which it has been attempted to bind him, that, in the exercise of a sound and fair discretion, looking to all the circumstances, he would have been justified in ordering General Taylor to cross the boundary, whether acknowledged or disputed, anticipate the threatened attack, carry the war into the enemy's country, and, by prevention, put a stop to it. He thought otherwise, and I do not presume to censure him. Still I believe, that if General Taylor, with his some three thousand troops, had been ordered to attack General Arista, with some two thousand, at Matamoros, and had demolished him before General Ampudia joined with two thousand more, who, in the event of Arista's overthrow, might then have been crushed too, by this anticipation of the imminent danger, it.
