Delivered on January 28, 1986, Ronald Reagan’s speech addressing the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster was a plausible proof of the possibility to communicate various ideas during a tough situation effectively and efficiently. In a speech that lasted less than five minutes, Ronald Reagan managed to express his thoughts verbally and attempt to persuade his audience through a eulogy, a speech characterized by its epideictic occasion, which had been infused with a deliberative content that did not conflict with the core of the speech.
Ronald Reagan was America’s 40th president who lead our nation through The Cold War, one of the most intense time in the history of America as they fought against communism. In Margaret Thatcher’s eulogy speech for Ronald Reagan(2004), she elucidates what a kind and powerful man he was, unifying a formerly divided nation. Margaret expresses that Reagan’s leadership was the key to ending The Cold War. She adopts a solemn and sentimental tone in order to appeal to the american people after the death of one of america's most inspirational presidents. Thatcher uses repetition, strong diction, and ethos in order to illustrate what an influential president Ronald Reagan was.
His inclusion of analogies and emotional appeals, combined with his strong sense of authority, brings his arguments into focus and gives them a punch. His power in delivering this speech quite possibly kept America looking towards the stars and propelled them into the next age of space exploration. President Reagan’s speech serves as a touching conclusion to a tragic event. Despite the terrible catastrophe, Reagan’s four-minute speech provided closure on the one-minute tragedy whose impact will be felt for

Carter mentions his past presidency to remind his audience of his former position, which makes himself sound credible, thus making his argument stronger.

He then says what has happened since he left office using negatively connotated words such as “failed”, “tremendous opposition”, and “struggle to safeguard.” With this, Carter tries to gain the trust of the audience by making it seem as if he is reliable and trustworthy, and what is happening now is
