178 Words1 Page

Theodore Roosevelt is credited with saying “Never throughout history has a man who lived a life of ease left a name worth remembering”. History plays a big role for our everyday life, in that we don’t know what the future may bring, but we certainly know what happened in the past.

When he says, “Upon the success of our experiment much depends, not only as regards our own welfare, but as regards the welfare of mankind,” it makes us think and feel that he knows what he is talking about, reassuring why he will be a good president. His logos is also shown when he talks about the Republic of the days with Washington and Abraham Lincoln.

However, men lacked manners and morality. Due to the very questionable propriety of men, Roosevelt was driven to address how men should act the way a real mature man would in order to further improve society. By using rhetorical strategies such as repetition, Christian appeal, and a serious tone, Roosevelt is able to show his audience how strength and decency go hand in hand.
