“Mr. Stone, it is time.” It was a cold January morning. The breeze blew through the trees, picking up the remaining leaves that had survived the early Winter, draining the colors from the beautiful city of Washington D.C. Before I stood up, I went through the main points of my speech and processed everything that was going on around me. I heard claps and shouts and saw blue, red, and white banners decorated with stripes and stars. Everything moved slowly as if time had suddenly stopped. I could not believe it, after months of campaigning and preparation, I finally did it. I finally got elected as President of the United States. I slowly stood up, fixed my tie, and walked towards the podium with my head held up high while the crowd roared. “Congratulations Mr. Stone, you did it!” “It would not have been possible without you, Samuel. Thank you again for managing my campaign and always having faith in me”. “Thank you Mr. Stone, good luck out there.” I politely nodded and went on towards the podium as I greeted my crowd with smiles and waves. I tapped the microphone, cleared my throat …show more content…
It is cold, so I promise to be brief. I want to start by thanking everyone who stood by my side throughout my campaign. I would not be standing here delivering this speech if it were not for my wife Emily, my son Richard, my daughter Sophia, Samuel my campaign manager, and many others as well. I began with a few votes, and eventually started gaining recognition through publicity and the debates. Every proposal and promise that I made these last months will come to be. Like each and every one of you, I seek the greatest future for this nation; and like all of you standing before me, I am a citizen of this great country, and my primary concern is serving the state. I hope that together we can lead this country to a better future, and that God will guide me in the years yet to come. Thank you, and may God bless
President Obama’s Inaugural Speech: Rhetorical Analysis. Barrack Obama’s inauguration speech successfully accomplished his goal by using rhetoric to ensure our nation that we will be in safe hands. The speech is similar to ideas obtained from the founding documents and Martin Luther King’s speech to establish ‘our’ goal to get together and take some action on the problems our country is now facing. As President Barack Obama starts his speech, he keeps himself from using ‘me’, ‘myself’, and ‘I’ and replacing it with ‘we’, ‘us’, and ‘together’ to achieve his ethos.
On November 4, 2008, newly elected President (at the time), Barack Obama, delivered his victory speech for the U.S Presidential Election in Chicago, Illinois. Obama’s speech focuses on major adversities America faces, and the strategies he will undertake to ensure those challenges are overcome, by making an unprecedented development in the lives of the people of America. Evidently, Obama’s use of repetition, imagery and inclusive language is undeniably effective, as it resulted in his presidential victory once, and a second time. The use of these techniques are used to encourage the audience to accept his views, to prompt the audience to envision a better future (as a result of the new presidency), and to sustain the point that everyone has a part to play, respectively. Obama successfully sets an optimistic and emotionally engaging tone, which is a strategically ideal setting to enforce his contention.
I remember when I was in high school setting in the auditorium listening to a guest speaker. It was a bitter sweet feeling because I wasn't in class but I also wasn't having fun. I don't remember much; but what I can recall is this guy started to rant about how if you ever find yourself incarcerated people will forget about you. Naturally this pissed me off to the point where I made a promise to myself. And I'm sad to say that I have only kept half of that promise.
Two years ago, I would not be able to stand up here and talk in front of all of you. *Chuckle* who am I kidding I wouldn't have had the guts to come up here one year ago. Let alone two. Just the fact that I'm able to be up here and not throw up is a miracle and thanks to that miracle, all of you have to sit there and suffer through my speech when you'd rather be at home sleeping in.
Tonight is a particular honor for me because, let’s face it, my presence here is pretty unlikely. My father has always wanted me to be successful in life and never give up on my dreams. I am here today trying to fulfill my dreams and become the next President of the United States of America. I believe that we could make this world a better place.
“A best friend is like a four leaf clover, hard to find and lucky to have,” Sarah Parker quoted. Now isn’t that the truth! Who knew I’d be standing up here today making a toast to my best friend who’s about to get married. For those of you who may not know me, I’m the maid of honor and the bestfriend of this beautiful bride. First, I want to start off by saying, ya know every once in a while...two people meet...sometimes for a reason others not for a reason, and sometimes you just know it’s meant to be.
Hope everyone is getting ready to ring in 2016! As we wrap of 2015 and get ready to ring in a shiny new year, we want to take the time to thank each and everyone of you. It has been a year of growth and learning and we could not have done it without your love and support. Thank you to our families, friends, vendors, friendors, and clients. Thank you to all of those whom have helped us and supported us in little and big ways.
Good evening everyone, My cousins have appointed the wrong person to deliver this speech... my standard lecture is 1.5 hours..... Just imagine what I can do to you guys….Anyways, I have been warned to keep it very short and sweet!! Thank you all for coming and joining us here today. Words cannot express how delighted I feel that you are here together, smiling and catching up with each other today.
3. Getting married! We know what’s going on in your mind! 9 things every bride goes through on her wedding day, what goes in their mind! 1.
Today i found out that you are having an affair .I’m having a hard time believing it. How could my beloved loyal husband betray our vows and promises? I just can’t get it. Probably , you are wondering now how I found the truth .I wasn’t spying on you; I didn’t track you down to find out the truth. The truth came to me when I found your email inbox open and could not prevent myself from checking that new email you got from ‘Maria’.
As the Big Day approaches fast, Name & I want to congratulate you and Derek. You two look great together and it is such an amusement to see two people getting marry who are clearly made for each other just like the two of you. Name & I had been looking forward for your marriage with Derek ever since you caught the bouquet at our wedding two years ago. I am truly overjoyed to hear the news that you and Derek are getting marry as we have been anticipating this day for so long and we are thrilled to be your best man and maid of honour.
Ladies, Chris Harrison begins, this is the final rose tonight. One of you ladies will be soon wedded to this fine young man, Prince Paris, Prince of England, son of King Priam, the most high humble prince. If you do not receive a rose tonight, say your goodbyes and go home. I inhale a deep breath and make my final decision. I delicately pick up the beautiful golden rose from the silver shining tray.
High there! Princess, I’m extremely sorry if I missed judge you infallible and succinct character with regards to smoking, but on the serious note, I asked the question as result of curiosity because the relationship keep growing from strength to strength and I need to find out things that are of paramount importance to me. I’m grateful you don’t indulge yourself into any wayward or deviant behaviors. That’s why I call you my only and only princess. I so appreciate you and I can’t wait to cohabitate with you for the rest of my life.
I want to first apologize for this long email, but I want to answer the many questions that will come from this email and explain what my family have been doing over the years. As many of you know, over the past eleven and one-half years, Julie and I decided to homeschool our daughters to avoid the pitfalls of our local schools. Although we were not educators, we felt passionate about giving our daughters an education that was not traditional. Looking back, we understood the risks involved, which we all dearly paid for with loss of income, stress, limited rest, tears, shorten vacations, nonexistent celebrations, etc. In other words, homeschool education has been by far the hardest part of raising our daughters. However, we were fortunate to have the support of many of you over the years, which helped us do everything in our power to guide our daughters to a top twenty university. There was help of all kind, from your emotional support, your conversations with them concerning their education, to buying a simple lunch, gifting bookbags, a computer, and even wanting to be part of the process by paying for some of their community college courses while they were in high school. Some of you even supported Julie and I in numerous ways so we can continue our difficult mission. For that, we will always thank you.
Clinton opened her speech by acknowledging Donald Trump as the president-elect of the United States of America. “Last night, I congratulated Donald Trump and offered to work with him on behalf of our country. I hope that he will be a successful president for all Americans.” These lines are crucial as they establish her character as a righteous candidate who respects democracy. Later on, she added:
