The Confederacy gained support after shots rang at Ft. Sumter on xxx 1861. Before that event, Arkansas preferred to remain neutral and hoped for a peaceful outcome to the divided country. President Lincoln’s decision to issue a call for troops signified an attempt to use violence to preserve the union, and triggered a vote that would change Arkansas forever. The elected leaders of Arkansas by a margin of 69 to 1 passed a disunion ordinance and chose to stand with the Confederate States to oppose Northern aggression, unfortunately there loyalty went underappreciated as Arkansas’ geographical and political significance went overlooked by confederate leaders and their war strategy. This strategic error resulted in limited government support

During the mid – 1860s, British North American colonies agreed in confederation, but there were many corruptions and things were to be change.

This and other devices, such as the image, additional statistics, and textual explanation, were used to persuade the audience to donate to Feeding America.

With the Republican Party on an urgent mission to woo Latino voters, one of its leading presidential candidates has been enmeshed for two weeks in a nasty feud over his inflammatory comments about Mexican immigrants.

A Modest Proposal is a deeply ironic and humanistic essay by what it denounces. Swift proposes that the poor of the country sell their children aged one year to those who will be able to afford this "delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food". This provocative proposition denounces the selfishness, inhumanity, and injustice of political economy: if the poor are devoured, figuratively, by politicians and the rich, as well as propose that they are also literally.

Such that the children cannot share their gadgets in one country and others share their little food in another country. But Jonathan did say he was open to any other ideas, maybe our present time has the tools to end this inequality. If nothing

about all the rancor surrounding Trump’s hostile discourse even though it affected minorities like me and my family. Besides, I’m not keen on sugarcoating all the nasty comments, as I do not wish for my children to get in the habit of whitewashing inconvenient truths.

How he used his personal life for an emotional aspect he further established his credibility. He was sort of saying I've been through it, I've witnessed it, I understand. He is also foreign so he knows what it's like being a foreigner and getting discriminated against. Being that he is a congressman makes him more credible. At the time his polemic was written it was more relate-able and credible because, that is what was going on during that time.
