Essay 2 Revision


Mit Romney appeals to pathos through everyone’s patriotism, putting everyone on the same level by calling us what we are, a nation of immigrants.  He talks about the freedoms of this country and how America is a symbol of a better life, evoking a strong sense of patriotism throughout the audience.  He talks about all of the hard times the American families are going through, where they were hoping that they could just get a little bit ahead, or put a little more into their children’s college fund.  He talks about the American spirit, the never quit attitude that has made this country great.  He talks about how when someone would lose their job that paid “$22.50 with benefits” they would take on TWO jobs at less because that is what they needed to do for their family, they did NOT quit, but instead they worked harder to provide for their families because they is what they needed to do.  He evokes a strong sense of patriotism from the audience by appealing to their emotions through their struggles, and through their actions of what they need to do.  He appeals to the concern of people when they are at the gas pump and watch the price hit $50 and just keep going.  He using emotion, a strong sense of patriotism here, to sway the people to vote for him.

Most of the revisions I made are just simple fixes to my very crappy grammar and spelling.  Including but not limited too misspelling Mitt Romney’s name….. But yea that’s all I really did to this paragraph.
