purchase?.
History
1 answer:
Anni [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Jefferson believed in the will of the people and he was against the corruption in public expenditures and elitism that could come from an elitist judiciary and powerful central government that would make unilateral decisions like the Louisiana Purchase.

Explanation:

Thomas Jefferson had a lot of faith in the will of the people and that was the premise for his philosophies on government.  Jefferson believed in lowering expenditures in order to reduce corruption and to give the states a lot of power vis-a-vis the federal government because they were closer to the people. He was against the elitism of the Federalist party and tried to challenge this in appointments to the judiciary. Jefferson was very faithful to the Constitution and this led him to hesitate on the Louisiana Purchase because it was not stipulated in the Constitution that a president could purchase land on behalf of the country.

During his visit, Obama promised that the US would double its financial aid to the country over the course of the following three years, which was also an interesting part of the visit.
