Rhetorical Analysis The first night of the Democratic National Convention had a lively start with many passionate speeches in regards to the direction of this country. Speakers like Michelle Obama, Bernie Sanders, and Elizabeth Warren appeared. Elizabeth Warren, Democratic Senator, gave a speech with a hint of worry and urgency regarding the future of this great nation. It was clear in Warren’s speech, she aimed to show Donald Trump’s faults along with painting Hillary Clinton as the ultimate Presidential candidate. Towards the end of her speech, the audience was shown cheering and agreeing with Warren, Hillary Clinton should be the next President of the United States.

It’s her “personal choice”, and Trump must not become President. It turns into almost a desperate plea to those watching, to turn to Hillary and vote for Hillary. Elizabeth Warren is “with her”, and there is no room in the oval office for Trump and his “goofy
