Pham Xuan An joined the Communist Party in the 1940s because he believed in the Party's anti-imperialist ideals and its goal of uniting the country under a independent rule. Because An enjoyed American culture, could speak English, and made friends with a number of prominent Americans, he was confronted about taking on a great secret task. An would travel to the US as a student, study journalism at a California college, and get a job in the press, covering Asia.

He became known as an anti-Communist, worked on the school paper, helped start the international club, and formed many strong friendships that lasted his whole life.
Henry and Bush’s Persuasive Speeches Although Henry Patrick and George Bush Sr. lived in different time periods, they both knew how to give convincing speeches for the issues that they were arguing about. George Bush Sr. was convincing the nation to support his decision to invade Iraq, while Patrick Henry was trying to rally the patriots to revolt against the British and their unfair taxes, and policies. However they both used ethos and pathos in their speeches. When Patrick Henry says, “It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country”, he is showing that he is a Christian and that what the patriots are fighting for is not only for the country, but also for god, which is making him relatable because he is a man of religion, but also evoking emotion by saying that the people will be fighting for god. George did the same thing when he said, “This conflict started August 2nd when the dictator of Iraq invaded a small and helpless neighbor.” By referring to Kuwait as “small” and “helpless” he is using pathos and evoking the emotions of both feeling bad for Kuwait and hating the big bully in Iraq.
He was journalist and capitalist and he put the skills he had learned in those professions to work when he served as American's ambassador in London and Paris. Franklin biographer Isaacson wrote that Franklin "believed in having humility to be open to different opinions. For him that was not merely a practical virtue but a moral one as well. It was based on the tenet, fundamental to most moral systems, that every individual deserves respect. During the Constitutional Convention, for example, he was willing to compromise some of his beliefs to play a critical role in the conciliation that produced a near-perfect document."

It would be a hard situation to explain my decision to my publisher, my readers, and the couple. I would tell my boss my highest loyalty is to him/her and my job. I wanted the best outcome for the newspaper. I would explain the situation to the readers by saying my loyalty is to you and knowing the circumstances of the gay-marriage amendment that’s why I didn’t print the announcement. Finally, the toughest decision of all I would tell the couple what my highest loyalty’s are and that’s how I came to the final
No matter what it was, he always did whatever he could to help. Geography helped American colonists in a number of ways. Since the war was held in the United States, the Terrain was difficult and unfamiliar to Britain. Distance was a help for Americans as well because British had to send and supply troops across an ocean, and try to move them quickly from one place to another.

“The Raven” focuses more on symbolism and tone to provide the reader with a glimpse into the mindset of a man stricken with the memories of a lost love. On the contrary, “The Things They Carried” uses epiphanies and imagery to let the reader experience the guilt that Lieutenant Cross experiences after the loss of his comrade. The conflict in “The Things We Carried” is resolved when Lieutenant Cross decides to forego his feelings for Martha and atone for his mistakes by leading the rest of the platoon to the best of his ability. On the other hand, “The Raven” holds no clear resolution for the reader. The story ends with the main character sinking more deeply into his own despair.
The Lord of the flies had unrealistic ending when a navy officer, deux ex machina, saves the boys from the island.

In the final chapter the hazard uncontrolled fire that Jacks hunters made to kill Ralph is what led to their survival “we saw your smoke” (201).
