Answer:

  2. The United States permanently gained free access to the Mississippi River.

  4. The size of the United States doubled, providing vast areas for farming.

Explanation:

  The Louisiana purchase was a vast acquisition of territory by a purchase of the United States to France in 1803. In return of 15 million dollars, the U.S. got 828,000 sq mi.

  The purchase extended the sovereignty of the United States across the Mississippi River, nearly doubling the size of the country. In the purchase, it was included 15 present U.S. states and 2 Canadian provinces.

  I hope this answer helps you.

Butoxors [25]

Marbury v. Madison marked the moment that the Supreme Court established itself as a co-equal branch of government.

In Marbury v. Madison, the Supreme Court carved out a space where it declared that it had the ability to review laws to determine whether they were constitutional.

While the Supreme Court rarely knocked a law down as unconstitutional in the 1800s, everyone now knew that they could. This quote, as I have said elsewhere, is the Supreme Court stating that the Judicial branch determines what the law is and isn't.

Why does malcolm x call uncle sam a hypocrite?
marusya05 [52]
Malcolm X calls uncle Sam a hypocrite because Uncle Sam declared themselves as the Land of Freedom, but America isn't living free. "Not only is he a crook, he's a hypocrite... Uncle Sam, with the blood of your and my mothers and fathers on his hands, with the blood dripping his jaws LIKE a bloody-jawed wolf....."He thought that this provided a negative image of the residence of this country about the true meaning of freedom. His statement about Uncle Sam is impressive; he tries to claim that Uncle Sam’s hands are dripping with the blood of the African American. He then calls Uncle Sam a hypocrite by how he stands as the leader of freedom yet African American’s are not free. 
Uncle Sam is a personification of the US government. Comparing Uncle Sam to a wolf helps the audience to view the government as ruthless and inhuman.

Hatshy [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you forgot to include the excerpt to know what you are talking about.

Although you did not include the excerpt, the name of the text, or the author, we can do some research and help you with the following general comments.

One historical event in the period 1787 to 1803 that would be used to support Ellis's interpretation is the United States President Thomas Jefferson's historical interpretation about the approval of the Louisiana Purchase.

For historian Joseph J. Ellis, the issue was the way President Thomas Jefferson proceeded to buy the Louisiana territory to the French, knowing that he could have been going beyond his powers as the head of the executive branch. The question for historian Ellis is not that his decision over the territory was right, but the way he implemented that decision that challenged his powers as President. Thomas Jefferson had big hopes that the next step for the American government was in the conquest of the western part of the United States.
