John O'Sullivan used the term "''manifest destiny'' to encourage the annexation of the territories of Texas and Oregon. The term came to symbolize the American people's thought that they were destined by Providence to expand throughout the continent, spreading democracy. It was later considered a poor choice in terminology due the stigma of ego attached to it and contradicting views with slavery.
