As you know, before the semester, I traveled to Harrisburg for a Presidential rally with a group of friends to experience the atmosphere and the people in it. When we arrived, the scene was hectic and I’ve never seen so many people at a rally in my life and I’ve been to a few prior (Obama/Biden). It was electric in that so many people were passionate about the country in a way indescribable. Minutes up to the rally you could feel the buzz in the air and then, the “USA, USA, USA” chants started to break out and most of the people, including myself had begun to get goosebumps. As soon as the President emerged from the curtain behind the stage, people just erupted and it was a nonstop cheer for him for at least 5-7 minutes. I’ve never seen …show more content…
He used the phrase “The Forgotten Men and Women” to appeal to the people who felt they didn’t have a voice under past administrations and that’s what really made people start to buy into him. Also, not forgetting how tough he was when talking about China and how they have been ripping us off for the last 50 years. He actually did not blame China for ripping us off either and instead he went at the past U.S. administrations for making such bad deals. I think If I remember correctly but, the day of this rally was the same day as the White House Correspondents Dinner in which he declined attending and used his message of the “Forgotten Men and Women” being more important. Also, around this time was the end of his first 100 days in office (“100 days of actions”–President Trump) and he really was boasting about the things he had done to improve the market, safety, and foreign relations. Moving into how this class can be used to look at the rally, I will focus on two major subjects we covered and they are Utilitarianism and Deontology. I’m not going to sit here and write you a book about what Deontology and Utilitarianism are but, what I am going to do is tie them into the rally and the things he said, including direct connections to the main social action of political fairness and freedoms. The two texts that I will be pulling from is Fundamental Principles of the
Grade Point Average, in which they may not comply with by the end of their high school
Once he begins to appeal to the emotions of the audience, they forget that he has no credibility and are roused by his compelling arguments. He began the conversation by saying, “we’re gonna spend as much time as we need today” making sure that the audience knew they were the center of attention for as long as needed. Continuing in his opening remarks, Trump flattered the audience by saying he won the south states because “the evangelicals were so incredible.” Trump indulges the conscience of the audience with his flattery. The evangelicals that were listening felt important and crucial to the Trump campaign. At the end of the conversation Trump went as far to say that the evangelicals are “the most powerful group in the county” and that “there’s nothing more important to him than this group of people here.” This was just another dip into the audience’s ego and another vote for Trump on the
As many of you may know today is a day for rebellion, against the slums, the ghettos, the bloody heels of crying children and bad jobs, today we arise as a nation for freedom and equality to stand against segregation. Today we rebel against the aggressors, to make a stand, so that every man, of any race may stand, and coexist as equals. Almost one hundred years ago all of the African Americans made free by the emancipation proclamation. But yet today one hundred, One Hundred, years later we still have to use the colored bathroom, the colored bars, the colored water fountains, and sit on the back of the bus.
This was no longer about winning a mock election, this was about representing my people and proving that we are not statistics and we are not undeserving of proper food. I recalled my poverty after Hurricane Katrina, the meals I gave up for my brother, and the mindset of penny-pinching that still follows me today, though this survival technique is no longer necessary. I stood in front of three hundred girls, some of which had no similar experiences to mine, others who connected with everything, but by the end of the speech, the atmosphere had
Election season is here and it goes without saying that this year’s election is different than any other election. In recent times campaign rallies have caused a hoopla. I have never been to a campaign rally, therefore when the opportunity to attend Independent Presidential Nominee Gary Johnson’s rally I felt that it would be a neat to see what a political rally is all about.
He addresses poverty, bad education, and crime and states that he will stop all this wrong. President Trump then speaks of his foreign policies and how he believes that America should concentrate on itself with the line ,”From this day forward, it's going to be only America first, America first”. He later begins to address terrorism and his tone changes from a more uplifting tone to a serious one when he states,” We will reinforce old alliances and form new ones and unite the civilized world against radical Islamic terrorism, which we will eradicate from the face of the Earth”. This sentence can be seen as bigot since he specifically states radical Islamic terrorism while radical muslims are not the only terrorists in the world. By stereotyping, President Trump is not showing much logos therefore not appealing to a large part of the
fight because he hates what is in front of him he fights because he loves what he left behind. This is a quote written by G.K Chesterton. This is certainly a true quote. We have two local heroes from our community. These two heros believed just this. These two heroes are also featured on our Mills County Freedom Rock Located in Emerson Iowa. You have probably figured out who I am talking about, I am talking about Sergeant Skalberg and Sergeant Carrie both of Emerson Iowa. And not to mention but they were both graduates from the former Nishna Valley School. They certainly did give up a lot for us. They have both made the ultimate sacrifice, giving their lives up for our country. Because of their sacrifice I can be here today speaking freely about my heros. This means that t they gave up the one thing that they loved most, their family. Now that I have told you who I am going to talking about in my speech I am going to tell you what I hope for you to learn throughout my speech. First I will tell you who my hero is , why they are my hero, what they do to deserve a title like hero, and what you can do to support all of our members of the armed forces. Without further ado
Other speaker lineups included former Vice President candidate Sarah Palin, Former Congresswoman Michelle Bachman, Frank Gaffney, Rep. Louie Gohmert presidential candidate Jim Gilmore, Mark Levin and other activists spoke to a crowd of several hundreds from around the country attended the rally. Despite the hot weather, the rally drew thousands of tea party members, supporters of Cruz and Trump, and Jewish groups combined with some holding signs and the American flag protesting the Iran deal outside the west lawn. Remarks from speakers were met with cheers and “Amen!” from the crowd along with angry boos when speakers mentioned the GOP leadership, President Obama, and Congress.
Political speeches are the crucial activity that links the different parts of society together and allow them to be as united entire. The core of political speech is the ability of the politician to use language and symbols that wake latent tendencies among the masses. Politics is a means for power in order to put certain political, economic and social concepts into practice. Language plays an essential role, for every political action is prepared, attended, influenced and played by language.so language and politics are closely interleaved.
I live-streamed some of the rally but much of it didn't work. had some great conversations, and some not really that great. The US is very emotional right now and there is so much hate. People at this rally shouted "protest in peace but there wasn't much peace. In fact I didn't feel comfortable yelling 'I am a minority and voted for Trump." Nevertheless, that wouldn't change anyone's mind What opens peoples minds are the type of conversations you see here in this video: face to face conversations that show the person who you disagree with that you're human too and are fighting for something too
In his speech he was recognising the soldiers that lost their life for our freedom and he was giving respect to them for what they did. He wanted to recognize human equality and how
I figured I's stop fill up a 5 gallon has tank and throw it on the fire, then kick back and enjoy the Liberal Democrats and the God fearing Baptist Republicans call each other names while pointing their finger.
To contrast utilitarianism and deontology, utilitarianism summarized is making the right decision followed by the right actions that has the best outcome for the largest number of individuals. Deontology is the understanding and practice that there is a respect for life, fairness, and honesty despite the consequences and no matter the affect on
Hitting the campaign trail, with Donald Trump! I didn’t literally go on the campaign trail, yet I did see him on several occasions. I must have seen Trump on four different occasions, three of which were at rallies, and I saw him once while he was departing from Charlotte in his motorcade. I was truly star-struck when I saw him for the first time, for he is truly a figure of authority. To be in the same room with who might be the next most powerful person in the world dwarfs me as a person. Donald Trump represents a movement of new wave conservatism, and even though I may not have seen many elections this upcoming one seems to be one of the most important in several people’s lifetimes. Every time I went I experienced a sensation I love, for it is like getting so lost in a crowd and feeling at one with what is going on at that very moment. I’m very fortunate to have such great friends that have similar views as I do, and I am also lucky to have some of them join me on one of my outings. It seems to me that going with friends somehow validates what I’m doing, and I enjoy spending some of my fleeting free time with them. I have gone to other Trump rallies before, but there is one event that me and my greatest friend went to in Greensboro that was truly, in every since of the phrase, an event that changed my life entire.
