OK...so I am working on an essay for school and thought I'd bring this up in an attempt to get my brain in gear to write.....who has any thoughts on this....

I know a Brother or two on here just might be kinda familiar with this topic....

Would you please provide definitions for both these words seperately and then together?

For the context I am referring:
manifest-apparent or readily perceived
destiny- inevitable

"Manifest Destiny" a term coined by John O'Sullivan in a paper titled "Annexation" in 1845 for the United States Magazine and Democratic Review
