Question

Part B
What is Jefferson's opinion about the purchase? How can you tell?

Answer 1

It would make the U.S almost twice the size it was and give Jefferson more control over the U.S. (and protect it)

Explanation: Jefferson wouldn't have bought it in 1803 and it was sold for a low price. The U.S also gained the Mississippi river which provided a huge economic development in the U.S. It was also the greatest accomplishment Jefferson made during his two terms of office.
