Rhetorical Analysis Of Bernie's Speech

In “The Bernie Bomb” by Kimberley Strassel, critical, mocking tones emphasize Strassel’s feelings towards Bernie Sanders’ inability to become the President of the United States. Bernie Sanders gave quite a performance at the first Democratic debate of the year. Strassel shares her thoughts on the nature of his responses to important issues during the debate by concluding that his followers should regret making donations to his campaign seeing that he really is not in it to win. Her witty critiques indicate her strong feelings that donating to Sanders’ campaign in hopes that he will become President, is truly not worth the money. Strassel’s diction heightens the uncertainty and unprofessional manner behind Sanders’ attempt at trying to be elected as President, which leads his supporters to doubt their contribution to his campaign.

Ethos is equivalent to credibility. Waldinger clearly makes his audience believe what he says by explaining surveys which lead to really strong data. He also states several different quotes by Marc Twain, which provided important pieces of evidence and different perspectives to his speech. Waldinger also states different research facts building a stronger main point. Lastly, he explains one of the oldest and longest study ever, The Harvard study.

Throughout his piece, Sanders uses the words, “we” and “our.” The author’s use of first-person pronouns already brings him together with his audience and shows that his response does not only concern him, but everybody else. The passage ends with Sanders stating, “When we cease to be migrants and become inhabitants, we might begin to pay enough heed and respect to where we are. By settling in, we have a chance of making a durable home for ourselves, our fellow creatures, and our descendant,” which appeals to pathos. Again, the author includes the audience and even speaks about the future generation.

One a simple level, one way Obama does this is always speaking in first person plural (“we come to proclaim”, “we will build”, “we will restore”, “we will harness”). This establishes a basic connection to his “fellow citizens” and implies that he is one of them and that he understands them. Another example of Obama’s use of pathos is his imagery. He says things like “to the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds.” This conjures an image of a poor malnourished child with no access to water, which the audience feels sympathy for.

January 20th 2017 marked the day that president elect Donald Trump took his oath to office. Perhaps one of the most controversial electoral processes in the history of the United States’ presidency, the possible implications of Donald Trump’s leadership will most likely make this one for the history books. His speech seemed surprisingly reasonable, astonishingly efficient, and very impactful in comparison to what many were expecting from him, because of the negative and possible detrimental image he has created in the minds of many Americans. Regardless, Donald Trump delivered a strong, decisive speech using unifying diction, well directed symbolism and varied syntax. Trump’s primary goal was to identify himself more intricately with the

In chapter three of The Black Presidency, Barack Obama’s rhetoric strategies and how he puts them to use is put on display. Precise examples show how eloquently he ties these strategies to his speeches. After my reading I was more familiar with these strategies and how I was affected on his ways of speech.

“When the nation with the greatest tradition of the rule of law is plagued by unprecedented lawlessness…then it’s time for new leadership for the United States of America,” cried Richard Nixon at the 1968 Republican National Convention, as his words struck the American people in unprecedented ways. One must not have had to be watching, or be alive during this speech to hear it. Rather, one must be alive in 2016, as presidential nominee Donald Trump tells the public that “when I take the oath of office next year, I will restore law and order our country… I will work with, and appoint, the best prosecutors and law enforcement officials in the country to get the job done. In this race for the White House, I am the Law And Order candidate.” A resemblance

Free College Tuition From Bernie Sanders Bernie Sanders believes that college tuition isn’t in the interest for our country’s future. Bernie Sanders states “It is insane and counter-productive to the best interests of our country and our future, that hundreds of thousands of bright young people cannot afford to go to college” (Bernie). Bernie Sanders’ point is that many of the talented people in our society may not be able to pursue their dreams or pursue their desired job because they and their parents can’t afford college. If Bernie Sanders is right that many Americans can’t afford to go to college, as I think they are, then we need to reassess the popular belief that FAFSA and other scholarships will considerably lower the price for college.

Quality by Device During a speech delivered the day after the Pearl Harbor attack, FDR says, “Yesterday, December 7, 1941 - a date which will live in infamy - the United States was suddenly attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan”. On December 7, 1941, the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japanese military forces. This was an act intended to intimidate the United States, and scare them from entering the war. But, in his January 6, 1942 State of the Union Address, FDR utilizes anaphora and flag waving to amplify the American spirit and effectively reassure the American people.

The flames rolled outwards like the smoke of a mushroom cloud. Gray plumes of darkness and misery ascended into the air. What was once beautiful cracked and wilted beneath the weightless fire.
