dishonorable; that we could not turn them over to France and Germany—our commercial rivals in the Orient—that would be bad

business and discreditable; that we could not leave them to themselves—they were unfit for self-government—and they would soon have

anarchy and misrule […]; and that there was nothing left for us to do but to take them all, and to educate them, and uplift and civilize and

Christianize them […].”- President Mckinley 1903
