Rhetoric: Bobbie Sykes J.

Decent Essays
The person that I am choosing for this project is my uncle named Bobbie Sykes Jr my uncle has two trades: household maintenance and a mechanic. My uncle used to pick me up from preschool, so we could hangout and wait for my mom to pick me up from my grandmother’s house. I did know anything about his past until I got older to learn that he was a convicted felon. He is trying to change his life around which includes changing the way he thinks.

Answer- Men became greedy and more evil killing people for money and sometimes for no reasons at all. Men became selfish they only want to see themselves better off whether then anyone else.
Redemption- How can we fix this problem?
Answer- There is no one solution to this problem, but if you want to start you have to get rid of a lot of people out of this society who corrupt it from the inside.
My uncle’s answers that he gave take little bits and pieces from other worldviews. I would say his worldview is that the supreme being has left us to defend for ourselves. The supreme being will only help us if it has some something to get out of it. That men can only help themselves in these problems. All of this information forms a great description of humanistic and deist worldview combined.
This project has showed me a new vision or outlook on my uncle in the inside. This will build our relationship and make it stronger then ever before. This will bring up a lot of great conversations about life and how we should live it. He will know feel more freely to share his thoughts with the family because he shared them with

Explicitly referencing the constitution, instead of summarizing helps Antony's argument proceed. Questioning the legality of the beliefs of the audience by basing it with a firm conduct, the Constitution, causes the audience to lean towards changes to gender norms. Additionally, she refers to government scholars like "Webster, Worchester, and Bouvier" ( line 95) to define citizenship as all people regardless of gender.

    This work is formal and neutral, as shown in the passage, “When I was a medical student many years ago, one of the nurses called me in considerable perplexity, and gave me this singular story on the phone: that they had a new patient—a young man—just admitted that morning. He had seemed very nice, very normal, all day—indeed, until a few minutes before, when he awoke from a snooze. He then seemed excited and strange—not himself in the least. He had somehow contrived to fall out of bed, and was not sitting on the floor, carrying on and vociferating, and refusing to go back to bed.

    Barbara J. King introduces her argument with a very serious and riveting story about a mother dolphin in distress over the corpse of her baby and uses this anecdote to grab the audience’s attention, appeal to their pathos, and intrigue the audience to continue reading. Her argument is an ambiguous case because even though the two topics of animals and mourning over a loved one would each seem to be honorable, a large portion of the audience she is targeting either doesn’t know or have not formed an opinion with the subject that animals can mourn as well as humans, while others simply disagree with her. Therefore, she must have this kind of introduction to try and win the attention of her readers.…
