I suggest the simpliest thing is to just give California and Texas

After all, weren't they the rightful owners before losing the

Texas was an independent Republic, not part of Mexico, when it joined the
union as a state.


We would all be happy with a compromise of just giving them
California.................heck we would even be willing to throw in the
western parts of Washington and Oregon. ;-)
