Hillary Clinton: The Most Successful Speech

599 Words3 Pages

Summary: According to your observations, which speech appears to be the most successful? Cite examples to support your claim. The most successful speech belongs to Hillary Clinton. Clinton’s speech consists of emotion, facts, strong points, and addresses problems with plans for resolution. A successful speech has to be able to make you not only hear the points made, but feel them as well. As the speech is given, Hillary causes her audience to relate and see the struggles others have made. She also provides proof of people rising from hardships. Clinton says, “My dad, Hugh, made it to college. He played football at Penn State and enlisted in the Navy after Pearl Harbor. When the war was over he started his own small business, printing …show more content…

Trump repetitively brings down his opponent, and spends most of his speech explaining why people shouldn't vote for Clinton, but less time and reasons why they should vote for him. Trump says, “Let’s review the record. In 2009, pre-Hillary, ISIS was not even on the map.” Trump is trying to draw the conclusion that Hillary is the reason for Isis. While Trump says this, Hillary comes back with fact-based evidence, showing how Trump really runs his business. Clinton says, “In Atlantic City, 60 miles from here, you'll find contractors and small businesses who lost everything because Donald Trump refused to pay his bills.People who did the work and needed the money, and didn't get it – not because he couldn't pay them, but because he wouldn't pay them.That sales pitch he's making to be your president? Put your faith in him – and you'll win big?”Not only does Hillary focus more on her plans, and facts, but Hillary strikes back fewer times that Trump. The factual based evidence and strong points is what puts Hillary Clinton at the more successful speech. After reading both speeches I came to the conclusion that Hillary Clinton had an overall more successful speech than Donald Trump. A successful speech consists of emotion, factual evidence, strong points and plans for

  • A Rhetorical Analysis Of President Obama's Eulogy

    Without a good way of speaking to people, a speech-bearer will not get the message across in the desired fashion. America likes to be fed information and likes to hear and feel the passion in others rather than creating less public and unified little passions in themselves. Citizens like to hear their leaders interpretations and feel a sense of grouping from that, therefore most people will not have read the way Obama’s eulogy was written and analyzed it, but watched him read it and felt the rigor in his voice and therefore found a better sense of understanding. Things tend to make more sense to people when conveyed by someone they look to for guidance rather than when broken down themselves.

    The speech I have chosen in order to analyze the techniques of giving an effective speech is John F. Kennedy’s Inaugural address which was delivered on January 20, 1961. Kennedy’s Inaugural address was given because of his victory of the presidential election. The customs of delivering an Inaugural address dates back to George Washington, who after taking his oath, gave a speech to Congress. Every President has delivered an Inaugural address since Washington and Kennedy had followed that custom by giving his address. The intended audience of the speech was for citizens of the United States in order to present their vision and set goals for the United States.

    It is often meaningless to evaluate a speech without first considering its context and purposes. As Dr. Blizer pointed out, “a work of rhetoric is pragmatic; it comes into existence for the sake of something beyond itself; it functions ultimately to produce action or change in the world”.1 Jobs’ speech was no exception – its basic function as a commencement speech was ceremonial by nature. Compared to other ceremonial speeches such as a testimonial or an inaugural address, a commencement speech is less restricted in terms of topic. It is, however, bound by the occasion and

    Bill Clinton is known as one of the most powerful speakers in the United States, and he impresses his audience by his speeches and the rhetorical devices that he includes in his speeches and addresses. For example, he effectively delivers his inaugural address with a convincing tone and some of the rhetorical devices such as allusions and strong diction. In his 1993 inaugural address, Clinton discussed the issues that America faced in the 20th century such as health care costs and low wages.
