President John F. Kennedy, known for his diligence and persuasion, called for a news conference about the hikes in steel prices by 3.5 percent. President Kennedy used strategies such as; repetition, diction, statistics and emotional appeals to approach steel companies. President Kennedy starts off by setting a strict tone, "In this serious hour in our nation's history", to let steel companies know the increase in steel prices is a national problem, moreover, Kennedy informs the steel companies that the problem affects everyone thus repetition. President Kennedy constantly uses "we" to show that even a man of his place and class is affected by this outrage. Afterwards, President Kennedy uses a cause and effect strategy while combining a guilty type of tone in the third paragraph, "If this rise in the cost steel prices is imitated by the rest of the industry instead of rescinded, it would increase cost of homes, autos, appliances, and most other items for every American family", to convey the grace results of imitation of increasing steel prices from the rest of the industry. Furthermore, Kennedy uses emotional appeals as well as carefully picked diction to persuade the citizens and steel companies to his side. To begin, Kennedy picks specific words that he knows will have a negative and persuasive emotion. In the first paragraph, Kennedy says, “Constitutes a wholly unjustifiable and irresponsible defiance of the public interest", Kennedy intentionally makes steel companies look selfish and show they are more against the "public emotions". In the second paragraph, he states, "...tiny handful of steel executives whose pursuit of private power and profit exceeds their sense of public responsibility can show utter contempt for the interests of 185 million Americans", Kennedy separates the "tiny handful of steel executives" from the 185 million Americans showcasing how insignificant the "tiny handful of steel executives" are and on top of that, it shows how they can't sacrifice their "private power" and "profit" for their "sense of public responsibility". Not to mention, Kennedy implements pathos in the same paragraph by targeting the "war" point of view since America was in the middle of the Vietnam War. He addresses the sacrifices the people are making, "When we are devoting our energies to economic recovery and stability, when we are asking Reservists to leave their homes and families for months on end... at a time when restraint and sacrifices are being asked of every American", while the steel companies prioritizes in this dark hour.In this impressive speech, John F. Kennedy establishes a very distinctive line between "185 million Americans" against a "tiny handful of steel executives" while also, impressively, including himself with the 185 million Americans, us versus them, to tell his citizens of how redundant and unneeded the price increase of steel.

Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is ..., but most of you know that. Its an honor to be able to speak on behalf of us, the students. I am here to tell u something that most of us in this school know about.  Most of the students in this school hope for a bright future. They hope to make a difference and to live a good life. This of course means the child needs to work hard. The children in this school work hard. To accomplish our wishes to make a difference, we also need a supply.  We need new technology in this school. Our library needs new computers. Our school claims to be there for the students. To be there for the students, one should be able to give the students what they need to accomplish their goals. We have a strict rule here in this school for no phones, yet we are expected to work on a research paper.  Our students are apples, waiting to be ripe, but unlike apples, students need much longer, and they also need an assist. (Metaphor) The school should be able to supply us, students, with our needs including computers.  This school has a history of the Midas touch. (Allusion) We plan on keeping it that, way but to do so we need your help.  We are the future, we are the difference, and we are hopeful.  (parallelism) Thank you
