PLEASE HELP
In his 2011 State of the Union Address, President Barack Obama said: "Now, by itself, this simple recognition won't usher in a new era of cooperation. What comes of this moment is up to us. What comes of this moment will be determined not by whether we can sit together tonight, but whether we can work together tomorrow. I believe we can. And I believe we must. That's what the people who sent us here expect of us. With their votes, they've determined that governing will now be a shared responsibility between parties. New laws will only pass with support from Democrats and Republicans. We will move forward together, or not at all—for the challenges we face are bigger than party, and bigger than politics." Analyze the types of appeal used in President Obama's statement. Use your findings and examples from the text to explain whether this is an argument or persuasion. Answer in a minimum of three complete sentences.
I will not write the sentences for you, but I will help you figure out if it is argument or persuasion. What do you think it is?
@BooksForLife argument
1: Think about it! Contrast the first paragraph with the second. How does it differ? Is he arguing with the topic sentence? Telling us that we can do it? Despite what the first paragraph says? Use evidence. 2: What is he arguing with? What does he believe we can do? Follow this guidance reference and you will get it.
