Answer 1

Sixto López would most likely construct an argument against U.S. annexation of the Philippines. He was an advocate for Filipino independence and opposed American imperialism, thus opposing the annexation. The other options listed, such as William McKinley (who supported annexation), an imperialist, or the National Association of Manufacturers (which may have favored expansion for economic reasons), would not argue against annexation.
