They have a very strong-and some say extreme-belief about war. They believe there should be no war. Of course, It’s not extreme to want world peace, but their measures are viewed so by some people. As president, Gary Johnson has promised that he would cut military spending by 43 percent. He would also take all military personnel out of Afghanistan.
Ashley White November 16, 2009 Political Rhetoric Obama vs. McCain In the 2008 Presidential election there were two candidates nominated to fight to run the country. One of the candidates was John Sidney McCain III, who was nominated by the Republican Party, and the other candidate was Barack Hussein Obama II, who was nominated by the Democratic Party. In this essay the national-convention speeches given by both candidates are analyzed. The analysis of these speeches focuses on the concept of America that both candidates present. Both candidates have rhetoric for each of their speeches and sway their audiences in a different manner.
Kennedy used in his address was Ethos. Ethos his simply, how you appeal to your audience. Many things stood out to me in his speech that connected him to the people of the United States. His most famous quote that comes from the address in the Ethos section is: “ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.” I personally liked this quote because we often find ourselves looking for what someone else can do for us and we hardly ever give back. I think this quote opened the eyes of the people and made them realize they needed to help the country out and do their part in society.
The military should not be thought of as a social program for orphans, jobs for the poor, or people going nowhere in life, but as a group of highly trained professionals dedicated to protect our country. Becoming a solider can change you into a better person than you were before and also change your appearance. Our country should always be prepared to defend itself. If being prepared means reinstating the draft then I think we should this a reasonable proposal. I think the tragic events of September 11 will evoke most people to agree on reinstating the draft.
After reading and taking my notes on the Libya articles, I have decided that I am advocating against United States military intervention. With the United States of America as a nation, I believe that we have nothing to do with Libya. I understand that we want to be helpful to the people in Libya and help them out, but we have other issues to worry about like out in Iraq and Afghanistan. We don't need to send out more troops to get killed. Gaddafi still has weapons of mass destruction, so putting our military out there would be extremely dangerous.
11, 2001: "We will stay on the offense against the terrorists, fighting them abroad so we do not have to face them here at home." Former Pentagon adviser Richard Perle believes the message sends a mixed signal. "It's certainly true the president has not succeeded in inspiring the belief that we face an existential threat," says Perle. "The problem with the term 'war on terrorism' is it leaves the enemy ill defined." A few weeks ago, one of the president's advisors told NPR that Mr. Bush never wanted to burden the public with the war; that, in his mind, he was hired by the American people to do the job on their behalf.
Another example is “With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deed,” this goes back to president Lincoln second inaugural speech. Kennedy uses this to help the people grow and open their eyes to “the land we love.” The president uses these historical allusions for trust and to make the citizens realize they made the correct choice. President John F. Kennedy in his inaugural address’ purpose is to induce a sense of protection and security to the American citizens. He effectively does this by conducting an optimistic tone throughout his speech in order to receive trust from the
I support Senator John McCain. I have various reasons for this in which i will only state a few. First off, McCain is a republican, therefore he possesses many of the same views and moral values. I also believe that John McCain's plans for health care are better suited for our nation as oppose to Obama's. In my opinion McCain's plans to end the recession and to end our economic crisis are legitimate and have a better chance of being successful.
Why Barack Obama Should Be Our President of The United States of America Candidate Barack Obama should be our President of the United States for many reasons. Where he stands on the big topics of today is just what America needs to become an even better country. His standing on health care, the war in Iraq, and immigration will make him a great President. He will do whatever it takes to make U.S.A. thrive and become a better place. Democrat Obama’s standing point on healthcare is very strong.
He gave hope to the number of Americans without healthcare or who are struggling to find a job. The President stated that the United States is a country that is not afraid when times are hard and is willing to fight through the troubles for our children and grandchildren. He proposed many ideas that he thinks will help better the nation. As one of the key components of democracy, popular sovereignty, the people of this country want solutions to the problems and Obama has some ideas. Now it is in the hands of Obama and his administration to take it a step further and see if it is really the answer our country is looking
