Who favored the Louisiana purchase

President Thomas Jefferson favored the Louisiana Purchase, which materialized in 1803.

The United States had expanded westward, navigation in the Mississippi River and access to the port of New Orleans were key for commerce. There were also fears and rumors that Spain would retrocede Louisiana to France. It happened effectively.

Jefferson saw an opportunity to enlarge the American territory and improve its security. The idea of having as a neighbor a France ruled by the powerful Napoleon Bonaparte did not please Jefferson. He opted for negotiations with France, though some critics advocated war to assure control of the Mississipi and of New Orleans.
