Yes, although it looked a lot more plausible when no European power had a serious claim to the area, and the United States had no real ability to enforce its claim. Population density over that area was relatively low on average, since many of the First Nations who lived there were largely nomadic, and covered huge territories with very small populations by European standards.

I could see it as vaguely plausible, if not likely. I mean, the main problem is the same one that the United States itself ran into, and still deals with the fallout from: kind of ignoring the fact that there were people already living there who might have something to say about this whole thing.
