How did Thomas Jefferson overcome constitutional dilemmas faced over the Louisiana purchase?

History
1 answer:
Doss [256]3 years ago

<span>Thomas Jefferson had always feared the costs of loose construction of the powers delegated to the national government in the Constitution, and the Constitution was silent about acquiring lands from other countries. Jefferson urged bringing the issue to the people to approve with a constitutional amendment, but Congress disregarded his draft amendments. The Senate ratified the Louisiana Purchase Treaty in October of 1803. While Jefferson did his best to follow what he believed was proper constitutional procedure, not enough of his contemporaries agreed with him and he eventually assented.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

One reason Jefferson wanted to purchase the Louisiana Territory is for future expansion.

Explanation:

Jefferson had read about the Northwest Passage, a way to link the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean and thus a secured trade route. As it was at the time most of the territory west of the colonies was still controlled by the Native Americans as well as it being undeveloped, going was very slow for explorers. Having access to the Mississippi River would change so much for trade routes and Jefferson was forward thinking in knowing that securing the Mississippi River would change trade prospects in the new United States.
