Why did people doubt the the purchase of the Louisiana Territory?
Thomas Jefferson believed in strict interpretation of the US constitution, and in the constitution it did not say anything about him being allowed to purchase such a large territory (remember it almost doubled the size of the country) but he did it any way because the property otherwise belonged to the french. He saw them as a potential threat and thought that without the purchase there could be war.
