    The former president of United States, John F. Kennedy, uses fear in his inaugural speech to appeal to pathos and outline the programs of future during his presidency. He appeals to the fearful emotions of the audience by admitting that although the forefathers in a capitalistic society “held the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life,” some people around the globe believes that the rights of man come from “generosity of the state,” which Kennedy is alluding to communism. Instead, he states that the rights come "from the hand of God" that each person get's what is deserved to him naturally, not by a gift from the state. Kennedy joins in this time the anger and dismay in order to suggest what the communist states…

This contrasts to the end of the section where he tells the American people “to act wisely, to act vigorously, to act speedily. . .”…

    For The Outsiders, I picked out two main themes. The first, which is shown throughout the entire plot, is that no matter how different we may seem from each other, we’re all just human and looking for a place to belong. This shown through both the Socs and greasers-- more specifically, Bob and Johnny. I used them as my example for the Parts to a Whole assessment, but I’m going to use them again. So with Johnny and Bob, they seem like complete polar opposites; one’s a Soc with parents that spoil him, and the other is a greaser with abusive parents that don’t pay attention to him.…
