This excerpt from Roosevelt's Four Freedoms speech best relates to which common American theme?

A. Americans are ready to fight.

B. American will sacrifice for freedom.

C. America will always succeed.

D. America opposes oppression.

This nation has placed its destiny in the hands and heads and hearts of its millions of free men and women; and its faith in freedom under the guidance of God. Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere. Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose. To that high concept there can be no end save victory.

Franklin D. Roosevelt, "Four Freedoms Speech: Annual Message to Congress on the State of the Union," January 6, 1941

The answer is C. America will always succeed.

In the encouraging speech, Roosevelt reassurances the qualities of American people: their freedom, which he sees as the supremacy of human rights, and their unity of purpose, as their strength; qualities that he believes will take them to success: "To that high concept there can be no end save victory."
