William McKinley

Answer 1

The most likely individual to construct an argument against U.S. annexation of the Philippines would be Sixto López. Sixto López was a political figure and activist who opposed U.S. imperialism, particularly in the context of the Philippines. In contrast, the other options you provided, such as an imperialist or William McKinley (who supported annexation), would generally be in favor of U.S. expansion. The National Association of Manufacturers, being a business organization, would likely focus on economic interests tied to expansion rather than opposing it.
