Answer:
The general opinion of many Americans at the time of the purchase was that Jefferson was being hypocritical by going through with it. Jefferson was known to have a strict interpretation of the Constitution and believed the president only had the powers the Constitution gave him. Since there was no Constitutional precedent for buying land to add territory to the United States, there was theoretically no Constitutional authority for the president to buy the land.
Many of those in the Federalist party (the opposing party to Jefferson’s Democratic-Republicans) believed that he would have objected on Constitutional grounds if any of them had tried to do the same thing. Therefore, the Federalists were very much opposed to the purchase. They also believed that by buying land from France, they would alienate Great Britain, whom they wanted as a close ally.

Hamilton was seen as a person who favored more power obtained by the central government. This means he was in favor of things like a national bank, less state rights, and less of an ability for freed slaves to vote (because federalists were also democrats). Jefferson, on the contrary, was an anti-federalist. He feared that excess central power would infringe on the rights of the states, and so to avoid this, he did as much as he could to retain state rights. He also believed central government authority gave more power to the upper class (wealthy whites) than it did to the common man (poor whites, freed slaves).

Answer: A. The Supreme Court ruled that agencies enforcing the act were
defining "disability" too broadly.
Explanation: During the 1980’s, it became clear to the disability community that it should play a very active role in Supreme Court litigation under Section 504. The first Section 504 case which was decided by the Supreme Court in 1979, Southeastern Community College v. Davis, 442 U.S.397, revealed at best, a lack of understanding, and also a hostility toward even applying the concept of discrimination to exclusion based on disability. In that case, a hearing impaired women was seeking admission to the nursing program of Southeastern Community College. The court found that Ms. Davis’s hearing impairment disqualified her to participate in the program because she would not be able to fulfill all of the clinical requirements. However, the Court did not limit itself to the fate of Ms. Davis, but included within the decision several very broad negative interpretations of Section 504.
