Thomas Jefferson at the time of the purchase faced domestic opposition because it was thought to be unconstitutional. He agreed that the U.S. Constitution did not contain provisions for acquiring territory, and struggled with the decision to go ahead with the purchase.
Jefferson did not believe that the constitution granted him the right to make the purchase.
Bonaparte needed the cash fast since he was at war with three other countries. He sold the Louisiana territory for only $15,000 in order to make a quick buck.
When Jefferson bought the Louisiana Purchase, he went against the 10th amendment. The 10th amendment states that any power not stated to belong to the federal government in the constitution becomes a power of the state. There is not a place in the constitution that says that the president can buy land. So to avoid going through the process of having every state ratify (or vote for and accept) the purchase, he called it a negotiation to avoid it. Also, Jerfferson always said how he didn't want the government to have too much power and he wanted to keep the countery small and unprogressive. People said he abandond his beliefs when he bought it. Hope this helps! :)

No the acadians were not accepted by the British colonists in America because they were foreign, but some made their way to Louisiana where the French did accept them.
Napoleon had toyed with the idea of reasserting French power in North America and then decided to abandon that project because it was too expensive and he could not spare the troops to protect that vast area. France's possessions in the West Indies were restless and minor attempts to break from the French Empire were occurring in the islands. When the Spainish, at Napoleon's insistance, withdrew the "right of deposit" to Americans in New Orleans, President Jefferson ordered his ministers in France to offer to buy New Orleans from Napoleon. The rebels in Haiti by this time had caused much havoc on the French Army. Some 30,000 French troops had died due to battle or tropical fever. The Americans were surprised, but urged Jefferson to accept, France's offer to buy all of Louisiana for $15 million.

No. They were both strict constructionists. In fact, when Napoleon offered the Louisiana Purchase to the United States in 1803, Jefferson nearly said no because the Constitution says nothing about allowing the president to accept land from other countries. Alexander Hamilton - a loose constructionist - encouraged him to accept it.
Because he was Republican, so that's why the Federalist wouldn't accept Jefferson's plan.
