Why do you need more than opinions to convince people?

because if you say something like uhh "jeff hates cheese" and then someone says "jeff ate cheetos yesterday tho" then the second saying i said was a fact so everyone would get convinced

Explanation:

You need more than opinions to convince people as some people are set in their ways, as most think emotionally. Sometimes if you want people to change their minds, they need facts from professionals so they can't deny the truth. Opinions are just what you think, facts are the set truth. You also need a good attitude if you wish to convince people, nobody wants to listen to someone who's just going to yell at them. I hope this helped! <3

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
