100 how did manifest destiny affect the 1844 presidential election?

if the question is not answered fully or if it makes no sense it will be reported

Manifest Destiny, associated with the Democratic Party was the main issue in the election of President James K. Polk in 1844. Polk advocated both the annexation of Texas (which, it was commonly understood, would likely lead to war with Mexico) and the assertion of American claims on territory in Oregon.
