My Fellow America Rhetorical Analysis

Speaking to a record audience of 1.8 million Americans packed in the National Mall, along with over 300 million Americans watching on television, President Barack Obama shouldered the monumental task of uniting the nation, by showing his audience that they share the commonplace of being American citizens. Obama accomplishes this feat by embracing the sacred ideals set forth by the Founding Fathers, emphasizing the idea that Americans are endowed with the “God-given promise that all

Will you join in that historic effort?” He calls out directly to the citizens, using the words “my fellow Americans” which gives the effect that he is no different than the common man, but merely an important “figure” in a suit behind a podium. He energizes the crowd, raises their morale, ignites them with confidence, “And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for your country.” He summons us all to take part and action into changing the nation as a whole, step by step, slowly but surely. And finally, he restates it, but this time, referring to the world, “My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of

The reason that I believe that volunteer work and work in general is vital to success in the today’s world and society is because the generation that I am apart of is lack of a better term lazy.The motto of the entitled generation is procrastination is key. The most important part in forming a generation comes from the parents. The outcome of a generation’s attitude always leads back to the source (the parents). Volunteer work in present time is very important for the youth, but is equally as important for adults too.

I came to America with a suitcase and a dream, but little did I know that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side. After my family and I worked our whole lives to come to the land of opportunity we faced problems in the cities and workplaces, in the environment, problems in politics, and in society.

I should like to start this address with congratulating President Donald Trump (who is out steamrolling the media and liberals everywhere in his haste for effective and efficient government) with his UPSET victory in this past election. We were told we couldn’t pull this off, that we were the minority, that our principles were those of

In elementary we are constantly encouraged to dream big and achieve even higher. We are expected to choose any occupation and follow its clear pathway to success. Nonetheless the reality of the story is that getting there is most often if not always difficult. As children we are not told of the obstacles we will soon encounter and the disappoint we will discover along the way. Only too late do we realize that the pathway to success will be a lonely and at times conflicting one. Richard Rodriguez an American writer discusses in his autobiography, The Achievement of Desire the sacrifices and lost he endured in the process of becoming a scholarship boy. Rodriguez's feelings of nostalgia at the end of his journey to success allowed him to see what he had so greatly attempted to ignore. The fact that education had

Speaker of the house, honorable members of congress, and my fellow Americans, I am truly grateful for the invitation to address this joint session of congress. I never imagined myself speaking to such great sapient paradigms of people living the American Dream. Since I was a young child, I often pondered about the American dream and how to attain it. Thanks to the help of my parents, mentors, the countless opportunities that the United States offers a Latino immigrant like me, I have enough reason to believe I am on the path to attaining such a salient aspect of American culture known as the American dream. I come to address some of primary reasons why many brave individuals have decided to partake in the honorable hegira of their home

Even though I became very sentimental and emotional during this trip, it was an important experience in my life. These children opened up a whole new world for me, and I will never forget their pure hearts and thankful words. During this visit, I’ve promised myself to keep on helping people all over the world. After my return I took part in organizing Amnesty International club at school. During club meeting we discussed current events, looked for people who needed help, and organized events and bake sales as fundraisers to help

As a pre-service teacher and UN-DPI Youth Representative, I have learned that I am lucky and blessed to be a U.S. Citizen. Why? Think about it: I am currently pursuing a higher education in one of the greatest countries in the world. In other words, I am getting the opportunity to achieve my American Dream. In fact, many citizens from around the world, specifically in third world countries, face difficult challenges every day, especially for survival. In addition, recently, after learning more about the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals and its 2030 targets, I feel that now is the right time for me to participate in a service-learning trip in Nicaragua. I feel that in order for me to grow more as a person; I must be exposed to a

-I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American

The speech was about illegal immigration over the past few years of within United States. The rising number of illegal immigration has been one of the most pushing issues affecting U.S. legislators. The illegal immigrant comes to U.S. for various reasons. The lecturer said some people left their original nation to seek for a better lifestyle and others may say for religious reasons or just to get away while other people come for more possibilities or better education. The lecturer then asked us “Do you support the law stating that illegal immigrant must be sent back to their original country? Should we have sympathy for illegal immigration actions?” On my own perspective, I think the law should have more tolerance on the illegal immigrants.

As I enter inside the room my first response to this presentation was going to be uninteresting topics. As the presentation went on I realize it’s not dull after all. The presenter not only did she speak about immigration she also delivered a message. The message I got form this presentation after all we been through as a nation under God we have always join together as a team and no matter how society criticizes, we will fight for our dignity and we will receive justice for all immigrants. I learned a lot from this launch, for example, Bill Clinton was actually the first to say the phrase “Make America Safe” but as we know now Donald Trump has changed the phrase to “Make America Great (white) again.” Another topic I found interesting and

A non-profit world of volunteerism and martyrs is how my introduction to taking care of community began. Working in soup kitchens, food banks, and clothing banks showed me the needs that my community had, however, it limited my perspective on what could be done about it. There was a sense that in order to meet the needs of the community, citizens needed to give until they had nothing left to give.

Trump calls upon his viewers’ patriotism and sense of duty with a lively, optimistic tone in attempt to unify the country with the goal of eradicating the opioid crisis. He takes advantage of America’s devotion to the future of the country by stating that “we want the next generation of young Americans to know the blessings of a drug-free life.” By emphasizing that the lives of America’s children are at stake, Trump compels the audience to take action themselves in order to secure a better tomorrow for the children of the United States. He then encourages citizens through inspiring diction to better their communities. The word choice “everyday heroes” and guardian angels” glorifies the people who take initiative in their communities. Trump’s glorification of those who go along with his plan motivates others to follow suit in order for them to be considered “heroes” or “angels.” Trump again attempts to unify the nation through an appeal to patriotism and sense of community. He declares, “together, we will face this challenge as a national family with conviction, with unity, and with a commitment to love and support
