Why did White Settlers believe they could buy land from American Indians?

First of all, the proper term is Native Americans, not American Indians.

Also, Native Americans did not believe in land ownership. White settlers took advantage of this. They did not see Natives as their equals, but more as animals. They felt that they were entitled to this land because it was not currently "owned" and they were white. So, the short answer is racism.

White settlers believed that they could buy land from American Indians because they believed that they could use the land more profitably than the Indians. Although they tried to buy, it raised a lot of conflict between the European settlers and the Indians.

"do you think it is a good idea for the president of the united states to have the authority to limit or shutdown internet traff
laila [671]
No, i do not think it's a good idea.
If the president could control the flow of information in the internet, He basically can promote only the sites that are suitable to his Agenda and demoting the ones that don't.
This situation is very similar to a Tyrannical Government that forced its people into only thinking a certain way.
