Based on Source 4, why were many people in Louisiana not interested in the politics of the state?
Excerpt from Louisiana A Narrative History
By Edwin Davis
During the first years of statehood native Louisianans were not particularly interested in politics and the newly arrived Americans were far too busy in securing an economic toe hold to seriously care much about political problems. Many Creoles were suspicious of the American system and prejudiced against it, while the newcomers were just as suspicious of the political actions of the Creoles.
