The right answer is C. we should allow ourselves to be colonized again .

“manifest destiny” of the United States to spread throughout the continent at whatever cost and at whomever’s expense. Americans generally believed that they enjoyed the blessing of Providence in their efforts to consolidate the continent and bring it under their control. The concept of manifest destiny ignored the prior claims of Native Americans and Hispanics on western lands and consequently, ignored the idea of being colonized again.
