George Washington was not involved with the Louisiana Purchase.
It was quite unlikely that President Johnson or Secretary of State Seward made mention of the fact that the Russian American Company had settleted Oregon Territtory as far south as California long before Lewis and Clark had entered the area. The Mapping of the Louisiana Purchase was vague at best.The US needed a clear claim on the west coast of North America and the best way to achieve it was to purchase all North American interest that Russia had. (Call it a Quit Claim Deed) For $7.2 million Russia was out and the US was in. This is an over simplification of the process and exact longitudes and latitudes could not be deliniated at that time.Silly came as a lack of information which may not have been promoted by the press of the day. Perhaps misinformation was provided. Perhaps it WA what was termed as Yellow Journalism. (Watch the coverage sometime on a breaking new event),Mainstream will slant it one way and Fox will provide a contrary view, Johnson and Seward were never open and above board on the need to buy out Alaska from Russia.
The vicksburg Campaign convinced Lincoln that Grant was the right man to lead the whole Union Army.
He was William Seward from New York. Lincoln made him Secretary of State and he continued in the office under President Andrew Johnson. Skeptics referred to Alaska as Seward's folly and Seward's icebox.
The congress had no power to tax unanimous decision for amendment, no separation of powers they could not get anything done.
I was convinced that the man was bluffing
