C. France was far stronger than Spain at the beginning of the 19th century
Spain sold New Orleans to France because they needed money. Now that France owned New Orleans, they posed more of a threat to the United States because they were a strong world power at the time because French dictator Napoleon Bonaparte was taking over most of Europe so Jefferson was worried that Napoleon might try to take over the United States.
Answer:
Slavery should be allowed
Explanation:
As the US expanded its territory the question about whether slavery should be allowed in the new territories started to appear. The Anti-Slavery states and Abolitionists wanted the new territories to be free states so the balance between pro-slavery and anti-slavery was maintained.

The Declaration of Independence
Explanation:
What is the first statement of the Declaration of Independence? That all men are created equal and with unalienable Rights. Sure, in this brief quote we can find the political thinking of John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. They advocated that humans are born free, but they choose to live in a community for protection and to maintain their rights giving their freedom to the State. Both philosophers believed that humans were free, equal, and the State created by them should keep them in that way. No matter if limiting the State influence over the individual (Locke) or living in community because they liked to be part of it (Rousseau), these two philosophers have the same idea about freedom.
The three branches of government are set up so that each branch of government has a defined role and that the roles are divided amongst the branches. This is known as separation of powers. So, in practice, the legislative branch might create the laws and the executive branch would execute those laws via agencies. Or the Executive branch might nominate a Judge but the legislative branch has to approve the Judge.
Checks and balances ensures that power remains evenly distributed amongst the three branches of government by giving each branch roles and limits to their roles.
