This appeals to them and makes them feel a part of his cause, and also suggests that he views them as equals. The rest of the speech then continues like this as he consistently uses words such as “us” and “we” rather than “you”. This shows willingness to work with them and emphasises his parity with them.

My first home was in Cowpens, South Carolina. This small town really lives up to its name because of all the farms and cows located there. I have a few small memories of seeing cows appear in our front yard because they had wandered off from their pasture. Of course I don’t remember these things very clearly because I was just a baby and a toddler during my time in Cowpens. I was a stubborn, red-faced, fat baby.
