Roosevelt uses this phrase, "based upon a decent respect for the rights and the dignity of our fellow men within our gate." He later says "our national policy in foreign affairs has been based on a decent respect for the rights and dignity of all nations." He's implying that Americans are moral, and their foreign affairs are based off of this "moral code" that lives within their own country.

Therefore, I believe the correct answer would be

C) That Americans are moral
