Unity Through Equality In late June of 2016, Vice President Joe Biden had an official visit to his ancestral country, Ireland. Biden planned his five-day visit to meet with Prime Minister Enda Kenny to discuss Irish-American relations, and to address the Irish people about the value of global inclusiveness. Throughout his speech, Biden uses different rhetorical strategies that aim to unify the Irish and American people. Biden’s arrival to Ireland occurs at a time when immigration is heavily debated

All Americans are eventually exposed to politics. As evidenced by the 2016 Presidential Election, many Americans take politics extremely seriously and hold many different social and economic views which mold their political stance.

In his 2009 Inaugural Address, President Barack Obama gave an impassioned speech filled with extended metaphors along the lines of movement, travel, and a journey. In fact, much of his economic language throughout the first 100 days of his presidency followed this theme. Obama’s use of these metaphors served to characterize the economic crisis, unite the American people, and frame his perspective on the role of the presidency.
