Rogerian style of argumentation

Reference no: EM131653322

Recall the two presidential speeches that were given by both President Obama and President Reagan, respectively. Note that these two presidents used the Rogerian method of argumentation to not only win over those who agreed with their viewpoints, but also to win over those who held different views.

Think about a national or international issue that matters to you and write your own speech for that issue, using the Rogerian style of argumentation. How would you win over the other side?

You don't need to use citations, but please do not create statistics or ‘facts.' You might also find this video on the Rogerian form helpful:

In your response to your classmates, comment on the persuasiveness of your classmate's speech - do not comment on whether or not you agree with the issue. Did this student follow the Rogerian format? Why or why not?
