If you mean expansion of the Southern slave-empire, this meant freedom in the form of States' Rights (free to over-rule Federal Law), and belief in the Constitution as originally interpreted, with slaves classified as property, whose ownership was sacred.

Does manifest destiny still exist today?

Yes and No. Manifest Destiny states that the US Citizens should own all of the land in North America during the early years of the United States. The US Government now controls most of North America, so that would be a "No". However, some extremists believe that the USA should control all of the land in that the eye can see (with satellite technology, that would be the whole planet). That would be a "Yes". In reality, Manifest Destiny is a severely outdated concept and should not be applied to the current state of affairs. That would mean that "No" would be a more sensible answer.
