    Slogans are a type of vague sentence or statement that are typically used to convey a opinion or a goal. Due to the vagueness, they are not meant to be meaningless, rather they are typically easy to agree with but can later be found to be objectionable.

    In his article “Lost in America,” Douglas McGray focuses heavily on the problem of isolationism and a lack of worldwide perspectives in the U.S. education system in order to prove that changes in the education of young Americans must be made. “Lost in America” was issued by Foreign Policy magazine in 2006, which reveals that McGray’s audience includes American legislators involved in the elaboration of American curriculum policies. In order to support his argument for this audience of policy makers and legislators, McGray builds credibility through the use of anecdotes that surprise and shock his audience, hyperboles to overemphasize his points, and a well-elaborated call to action to encourage his intended audience. McGray effectively employs…

Mr. Obama says that these people do not ‘expect that government will solve all of their problems,’ but that they are willing to work hard in order to achieve their dreams. This seems to solidify Obama’s ethos with the audience, especially when combined with the specific scenarios that he uses to exemplify the need for his policies. The middle section of the speech is dedicated to the 2004 Presidential Election.…

Obama makes his speech more convincing by using climax to split his speech into multiple sections; the first section is used…
