John O'Sullivan's phrase "the Anglo-Saxon foot" refers to the idea that the United States was founded on the principles of Anglo-Saxon culture and values. He believed that the United States should be a nation of free and independent people, with a government that was based on the principles of democracy, individual liberty, and the rule of law. He argued that these values were rooted in the Anglo-Saxon tradition, and that the United States should strive to maintain them.
