The real truth behind this blog... I actually started this blog because it is part of my Writing class. So naturally some of my posts will be about my writing assignments and here's the first of them.
I wrote my Rhetorical Analysis on an address given by Mitt Romney during his presidential campaign in 2007 titled, "Faith in America." I thought this address would be interesting because I know that there are people who dislike the fact that Mitt Romney is a Mormon and there are people out there who don't understand what Mormons are like. I wanted to see how he reacted to the views of other people. I read through his address a couple times and it really helped me figure out what he used to help the people listening understand where he's coming from. He used a number of strategies to convince the Americans that being a Mormon does not make him a bad American. On top of that, he made it clear that he appreciates any and all of the different faiths out there in the nation. What I thought helped him the most was when he specifically stated the roles that religion has in the government. I think that really helped highlight his address.
I thought my paper turned out alright. I did the best I could and thought my analysis were pretty thorough. However, I do wish I had a couple more people read it over because what makes sense to me does not always make sense to other people. But besides that, I spent a big chunk of time working on this paper and really liked learning about the insight that Mitt Romney has about faith in America.
