Rhetorical Analysis On John Kasich
In his speech, John Kasich talks about how is father was a mailman and how he carried mail on his back. His father knew everybody on his mail route and how he would celebrate with everybody from birthdays to funerals. His grandfather worked in the coal mines and the government would rip him off from the paychecks. His grandfather had no control and the government could take advantage of him. John says the town he grew up in, people found they were out of work. People don’t have a decent wage increase in a long time and all their bills are going up. After he finishes his story, he tells the crowd how he will fix this and his views. John is using the sympathy fallacy by making people feel bad for him growing up and how his family had a hard

    I believe that Ted Cruz did very well in the debate tonight. He had good arguments and strategies for all questions asked, and debated very well with the other presidential candidates. He is now my favorite candidate. I specifically remember agreeing with him over over Rubio on how to deal with ISIS. He suggested a devastating carpet-bombing of the entire state, where Rubio suggested that we aid Muslims in a civil war against ISIS. I think that Rubio’s approach is a horrible idea because it would just make us more meddlesome and our issue more complicated. I also noticed how multiple republican candidates were subtly trying to put Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton in the same boat, by grouping them together in giving bad examples of policies…

    Nicholas Kristof wrote a compelling article titled “Our Gas Guzzlers, Their Lives”. In the article he is arguing that wealthier country’s greenhouse gas emissions are severely damaging life in many African countries. In fact Charles Ehrhart, a Care staff member in Kenya, states, “The negative impact of the West’s carbon emissions will overwhelm the positive effects of aid” (Kristof 580). So although we are trying to aid, it is our lifestyles that are damaging these peoples’ environment. Nicholas does a spectacular job presenting his case and giving evidence for his claims. Kristof produces an effective argument because of his stellar development of ethos, logos and pathos.…

    If there can be any objection to the administration, it can be the general disdain it has for reality. The President of the United States of America has employed the highest offense possible; he attempts to promote contradictory ideas at the same time and hold that they complement each other. Trump’s most important example should be his tone on the campaign trail. Trump’s campaign was run on two violently opposing ideas: that America is a perfect nation, that America is God’s nation, that America is the savior and protector of the world, America has the perfect culture that all nations should adopt, and our soldiers are the strongest, our products are the best, our land is the most beautiful, and that all nations should be subservient to American…

    The final strategic error that Cruz suffered from was non-persuasive pathos. Pathos is employed in order to ignite emotion or feeling in an attempt to rally support. Cruz used effective descriptions and adjectives to employ pathos, but because of a lack of timeliness and empathy his pathos were not persuasive. At the beginning of his Prayer to France, Cruz effectively portrayed support and stood in solidarity with the people of Paris by asking God to, “lift up’, “comfort”, and “be with the people of Paris.…

    Ted Cruz has been so far only GOP candidate to animadvert the same-sex court ruling sternly enough to ignite the social conservatives. While all other GOP candidates showed controlled reaction on the law, Cruz tears the court ruling down and takes the opposition of same-sex marriage as ‘front and center’ of his presidential election campaign. Most of the GOP candidates have criticized the law but ended up obeying it ‘showing respect’ to the law except for Cruz, who has initiated campaigning against same-sex marriage ruling in Iowa. He also has excoriated the court for upholding Obamacare. He suggests that the court has overstepped its bounds.…

    For my tenth journal I’m writing about Donald Trump. One of his logos is he doesn’t want the baby to be aborted last week before his/her birth. Also his logos is that he wants strong borders, no amnesty and to get rid of the bad people. As well as,his logos regosinate Nafta or cancel Nafta and create a new trade deal. His ethos is questionable when nine women said that they have been touched by Donald. But, he says he doesn’t even know them and that Hillary sent these women to make him look bad. But nine women isn’t a small number to be considered lying. It’s nine women, not one or two to call them liars. It’s more than enough to believe them.…

    Speaker’s use diction, syntax, and imagery to reflect their tone. In her final argument, Clinton says “After the world watched with horror as the twin towers fell, he called in to a New York TV station, and even on that horrible day when thousands of people lost their lives, he couldn’t stop himself from pointing out that now, because the towers had fallen, a building he owned was the tallest in Lower Manhattan.” Hillary Clinton's use of words like “horror” and “horrible” sets an apathetic tone. By setting this tone Clinton hopes to show voters how self-centered Donald Trump is. While Clinton strives to prove that Donald Trump was self-centered, Trump ventured to show that Hillary Clinton was crooked. Donald Trump first called Hillary Clinton…

    When it comes to communication, Donald Trump had a very unique approach. He does not “play it safe” at all. Instead, he is bold and rather casual in debates, and it works. Donald Trump is appealing to a younger crowd beginning with his communication strategy. He talks like he is in high school. He uses his words in a clear way where everyone can comprehend the message he is trying to get across. While it could potentially and did in fact offend people who find themselves more sophisticated, it appealed to the average person. Also, he has sort of mastered exploiting whoever his current opponent is. He proclaims whatever he wants about them, not paying much attention to the truth. For anyone who feels that they have lack of power or are voiceless,…

    Populist language has been utilized by American politicians since the nineteenth century, and that trend certainly did not end during the 2016 presidential campaign. Michael Kazin defines populism as, “a language whose speakers conceive of ordinary people as a noble assemblage not bound narrowly by class, view their elite opponents as self-serving and undemocratic, and seek to mobilize the former against the latter.” The majority of Bernie Sanders speeches included this language, and this helped him gain popularity from voters throughout the country. Sanders was an ideal candidate for the so-called common man, as he was straightforward with his disgust of billionaires and the inequality of wealth in the country. His negative claims towards…
