Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Texas did not become a state until 1845, and Martin Van Buren lost the 1844 Democratic party nomination for president because he did not favor the immediate annexation of Texas, therefore the Democratic Party's Platform was based on Texas becoming part of the United States.
