How did the Louisiana purchase connect to Washington's farewell address?

The Louisiana Purchase in 1803 exemplified the expansionist vision that Washington warned against in his Farewell Address, where he cautioned against entangling alliances and the dangers of overextending the nation. While Washington advised prioritizing unity and caution in foreign affairs, the acquisition of the vast territory doubled the size of the United States and fostered a spirit of westward expansion. This act reflected a shift in national policy, as the nation began to embrace a more assertive and aggressive approach to its growth, diverging from Washington's principles of restraint and neutrality.


What did president Johnson use for justification for escalating the war in Vietnam?

The US was already involved, long before he took office. The question should read: ...justify America involving US conventional troops and open warfare against North Vietnam?" LBJ justified it by the Tonkin Gulf Incident (sea battles). It was two incidents but considered only one. The TWO naval battles involved the destroyers USS Maddox & USS Turner Joy against the North Vietnamese Navy Torpedo Squadron 135 on 02 & 04 August 1964. Prior to this, the US was NOT WAGING WAR against North Vietnam; it was fighting a counter-insurgency war only against local communist guerrillas in SOUTH Vietnam. Those local guerrillas were called the Viet Cong (VC). After the Gulf incident, the US was at war with North Vietnam DIRECTLY. US conventional troops landed in SOUTH Vietnam in 1965.
