His decision to buy the land went against his own belief to strictly follow the words of the Constitution. 

<span>The Constitution gave no guidance about acquiring lands from other countries. Jefferson was going out on a limb with the Louisiana Purchase.</span>

The Louisiana Purchase wasn't embarrassing to Jefferson. It was a form of "unhinged alters" to America. It went against the masses which is why this could have been seen as a controversial concept to the people back then. Nobody was open to change, therefore in some eyes people thought Jefferson should have been reprimanded.The people thought he was going against the constitution, making it "illegal" for the purchase to even happen.

Attorney General Robert Kennedy wanted to end the Freedom Rides, seeking
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

B. A "cooling-off period."

Explanation:

The Freedom Rides, was a movement initiated by a group consisting of twelve African-Americans and six whites, who were commemorating the seventh anniversary of a decision of the Supreme court which ruled that segregation in schools across the country was not constitutional. These groups attempted entering 'whites only' areas and this action, resulted in violent attacks by white mobs. The movement began on May 4, 1961.

When the situation became really critical, Attorney General Robert Kennedy, issued a statement where he advised that a cooling-off period be observed until a state of normalcy is restored. He reasoned that some of the travelers in the buses were innocent people who needed to get to their destinations, and so could easily be attacked by the mob who asks no questions.
