This is what I believe is wrong with America. And the world can never be safe while the most powerful, the most dominant nation on earth collectively thinks this way.

She didn't stop at California.

Who is she. The Protestant Muse of Injun murderers or something??

I'm talking about the left - as you look at it - side of the picture. There is a Christian brainwashed Injun brandishing a crucifix directly behind the squaw getting dragged along behind a horse, Mr Magoo.

Columbia, a personification of the United States, leads civilization westward with American settlers, stringing telegraph wire as she sweeps west; she holds a school book. The different stages of economic activity of the pioneers are highlighted and, especially, the changing forms of transportation. The Native Americans and wild animals flee.

Columbia is a poetic name for the Americas and the feminine personification of the United States of America

She is also called Manifest Destiny.

Manifest Destiny was the 19th century American belief that the United States was destined to expand across the North American continent, from the Atlantic Seaboard to the Pacific Ocean. It was used by Democrats in the 1840s to justify the war with Mexico; the concept was denounced by Whigs, and fell into disuse after the mid-19th century.

Advocates of Manifest Destiny believed that expansion was not only wise but that it was readily apparent (manifest) and inexorable (destiny).
