Benjamin Franklin Persuasive Speech

Events like these lead up to a delegation in 1785, proposed by Alexander Hamilton. As important topics were brought up, ultimately Hamilton’s response addressing a national reform plan or idea, became the highlight of the conference. Without a delay, James Madison rushes to Hamilton’s support and organizes a conference in Annapolis, Maryland to find a solution to the issues. All the states were given invitations to attend this conference concerning the future of the nation. Unfortunately, only five state representatives attended. Regardless, the attendees sought to create an organized conference for all the states to be more persuaded to attend to. The 1787 Philadelphian convention took place on May 1787 in Philadelphia. In fact, 55

Did you know that it only took twenty minutes for people to die once the Nazis had forced them into a gas chamber? In that short amount of time all their hopes, dreams and achievements disappeared. Elie Wiesel believed that whenever “men and women are being persecuted because of their race, religion or political views…” then it falls on all of us, both individuals and government, to help. I agree with Wiesel that to stop future genocide and further racism, we must all come together because not only are we all human beings, but if we don't then we will never advance.

The message I will be conveying is the importance of embracing failure. My role will be myself as I understand myself the best. The audience addressed will be my fellow classmates. In the format of a speech.

I would like to show you a different perspective on a topic that is very close to me, and hopefully persuade you to see this stance in a different light. The National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 was passed to punish the states that allowed people under the age of 21 to buy and consume alcohol. I am sure you are aware of this act but that is when i believe a right was taken away from american citizens. I believe that it is a right of an american to go out with his friends or coworkers and relax after a long week of contributing to the economy , by working or putting money into circulation when he buys groceries or picks up the tab at the bar for his friends. I am fully aware of the opposing argument, that “kids” under 21 are not responsible for their actions when they are impaired by drinking, but the same is true about people over 21 as well. What defines 21 as the age that makes you so much smarter than the 20 year old that you were last week.

In the summer of 1787 in Philadelphia, 55 delegates from 12 states took part in the Constitutional Convention. Rhode Island did not send any representatives. Some attending delegates, such as George Washington and Benjamin Franklin, had been respected leaders before and wanted a central government with real power, and were also well known to the others. Younger delegates, such as Alexander Hamilton of New York, and James Madison of Virginia, was younger, but was very influential during this Convention, seeing that the National Government had serious weaknesses that needed to be addressed in order for the United States to thrive. (Schmidt) Madison took notes, most of which were detailed, and were later published and became a rich source of historical

Benjamin Franklin stands tall among a small group of men we call our Founding Fathers. Ben used his diplomacy skills to serve his fellow countrymen. His role in the American Revolution was not played out on the battlefields, but rather in the halls and staterooms of governments. His clear vision of the way things should be, and his skill in both writing and negotiating, helped him to shape the future of the United States of America. His most important service was as a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1787. Although it was not accepted, he is reported to have been the author of the single legislative Assembly, instead of two branches. Other statesmen have considered bicameral assembly preferable, and which have since been adopted

In an interesting section of The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, Franklin describes how he dealt with a new member’s opposition to his position as clerk of the General Assembly. Instead of carrying on “inimical proceedings”, or openly showing him “servile respect”, Franklin asked the member to lend him one of his books. Franklin found that once the member had done him a favor, the member no longer harbored ill sentiments towards him, and they remained life-long friends (80).

Due to Atticus actions, I can infer that he is a reserved person in the sense that he is aware of his abilities, and yet he does not abuse them. He waited until there was an occasion in which his abilities were truly necessary. This means that he is the kind of person that truly understands the meaning of his actions. I will also add I perceive that Mr. Atticus Finch is a very just person; I say that evaluating his entire personality throughout the whole book. The way he defended Tom Robinson, even though the whole town criticized him for shows a certain level of morals that was truly unexpected at the time considering the racial believes in America during that

Can some man arrive at moral perfection in this life, or is it impossible? Benjamin Franklin was an extremely brilliant and talented individual. He constantly sought ways to improve himself. After he read “The Spectator” he put in a very dedicated effort to imitate their style of writing because he loved how precise the authors wrote out their thoughts. Franklin was also a relatively religious man or at least believed enough to try to be a morally righteous man so that he would avoid his way into hell. Through these beliefs and virtues Franklin created a plan to achieve moral perfection. Although finding the task somewhat more difficult than he first imagined he stayed with his convictions and deduced thirteen virtues to improve upon and

This paragraph is going to be about one of our founding leaders. Benjamin Franklin. Everyone knows about Benjamin Franklin to a Statesman to a guy who got electrocuted with an umbrella. These paragraph will just inform you about who he was and what he all did.

My delegate was Benjamin Franklin. He was born in 1706 in Boston. He obtained the employment of a printer and created his most successful literary accomplishment, the annual Poor Richard’s Almanac. For his political background, he represented Pennsylvania at the Albany Congress and proposed the Albany Plan, served on a committee that drafted the Declaration of Independence against King George III, and negotiated in France over the Treaty of Paris.

The Speech of Miss Polly Baker Benjamin Franklin’s life and writing can easily be used to help one become a model and picturesque citizen. Throughout time Franklin used many pseudonyms in his periodical writings in order to make his point known about the fallacies in court rulings of the colonial times. One of his most famous articles written using a pseudonym were “The Speech of Miss Polly Baker.” This story was about a woman that was being prosecuted for the fifth time for having a bastard child and which one of the judges decided to marry her the next day.

I would like to thank you for taking time out of your hectic schedule to talk to me as well as my peers. It was very interesting to find out the line of thinking from a person who deals with this topic fairly often. I am very appreciative of you taking
