Rhetorical Analysis: Gore V. Bush

In regards to scientific facts, Gore explains that when it comes to samples and the analyses of many articles and studies on the matter, “the number of those that disagreed with the scientific consensus that we are causing global warming and that, it is indeed a serious problem” is zero. (Gore) At first, he also uses overemphasis and exaggeration when referring to mass media and its claims that, many

their judgment became clouded. In the first chapter of The Assault On Reason by Al Gore, Gore

The election of Bush v. Gore is known as one of the most controversial elections of all time, people often speculate the perspective of the election based on the popular vote and the way the candidates presented themselves. Known as the “Endless Election”, the events that took place during in the election led to a huge argument on who really won the election. People like to argue that election was rigged and that Gore should have been the POTUS.

In his essay titled “Climate of Denial”, Al Gore, a well known environmental advocate and former vice president, verifies the reality of climate change and global warming. The piece is an attack on corrupt companies and news outlets that attempt to persuade the public that global warming is not a critical issue. Gore also earnestly conveys our environment’s current state and offers possible solutions that would increase awareness about global warming and begin to revert the planet back to a healthier, more sustainable state. The overarching purpose of Gore’s work is to call attention to the widespread climate change that is occurring. However, he also focuses on the corruption and bias within the media, and their attempts to conceal the truth about global warming. Writing to those who are conflicted about who to believe, he makes a valid argument that defends the beliefs of he and his fellow activists and encourages others to become more active in the climate change issue.

Although Gore’s personality and Clinton Fatigue may have influenced and impacted some voters, their overall effect was not as substantial as Ralph Nader. When Ralph Nader announced he was running for the presidency in the 2000 election, the Democratic Party was infuriated. They firmly believed that if Nader ran alongside Gore, he would detract votes away from Gore consequently allowing Bush to surge ahead. Many of the campaign managers and other members of the Democratic party informed the people that “a vote for Nader would equal a vote for Bush”.# They also advocated that although Nader was slightly more liberal than Gore, against Bush, Gore would have been the better candidate. Later when Nader won the Green Party’s nomination, considering

Rhetorical Analysis: The primary audience for this paper includes every citizen aged eighteen and above eligible to vote in the United States. The proposed topic mostly concerns these individuals due to the fact, they are affected by presidential voting institutions. Throughout this paper, I will be arguing in favor of the Electoral College, with an end goal of persuading my audience of the benefits of the system.

Bush campaigned for the 2000 election, he explicitly opposed Kyoto as it “would cause serious harm to the US economy” (Borger, 2001). The international issue of global warming was thusly labeled as something that could be ignored in favor of local economic profit, and emission reduction was assumed to be impossibly expensive.

In the upcoming 2016 election, there are many political topics that voters may see as more important than another. Voters are normally inclined to elect someone with the same look on immigration or economic problems, so that they can influence the world the way they would like. The author of “One political issue matters more than the rest, and it’s climate change,” Courtney Butterworth, argues that the topic that should be a priority and influence our decision making the most is that of climate change. In her article Courtney argues that by focusing on the issue of climate change we can help the economy. She gives the fact that “coral reefs alone generate about $375 billion per year.” This statistic may be true be true but is this the most important matter of the campaigns? Courtney also states that in 2000 “more than 150,000 people died due to the effects of climate change” but is this the only way people are dying in our country? This essay will not only show how climate change has affected our world, but also how other debates are more beneficial to the campaigns.

Everything from the machinations of the party to the actions of their voters, such as the riots that had slowed the recount and thus eliminated what precious little time it was allowed[3,4], lead to the slow yet eventual death of Gore’s chance at the presidency. The entirety of the affair was rigged in opposition of the Democrats, yet even so the race was considered

In 2010, Al Gore wrote an opinion piece in The New York Times claiming that global warming is a matter our generation must concentrate on in order to halt the rapid increases of change to our planet’s climate. He creates a strong, convincing argument by addressing and exemplifying issues pertaining to global climate change.

To ensure the passage of the Climate Stewardship Act, S. 139, in the US Senate before the November 2004 presidential election.

Gore on the other hand agrees with only a couple of things that Bush stated. He strongly supports accountability; he also supports local control. Bush and Gore agree on both. Gore thinks every teacher should be tested including in the subjects that they teach. He also thinks that 100,000 new teachers should be recruited to reduce class size. The main reason for that is because a man gave him a letter from his daughter. The girl is the 36th student in her class; the picture attached showed that there was no room for one desk so she had to stand. He also wants to make college tax deductible (up to $10,000 a year).

People went to bed one night thinking that Gore had won, but when they woke up they found out that bush had won with Florida’s twenty-five electoral votes. It happened on November 7, 2000. Bush charged that the recounts in Florida broke the rules of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. A 7-2 majority ruled that the Florida recount was being conducted unconstitutionally. The case was covered in controversy as the Majority versus minority opinion on the redress was split along the lines of the more reactionary justices voting in favor of Bush and the more liberal justices voting in favor of Gore. The minority disunity noted these issues and other including the principle of equality and

One thing that really stood out, in five of the seven articles, are discussions of George Bush's activities were discussed prior to discussion of Al Gore. At first, I thought that maybe it was a fluke and writer was following an alphabetical order procedure to present the article. But, when I read the two articles that discussed Al Gore's activities first it struck me that this is a very important aspect of any writing. This struck me as important because I believe that the position that the writer usually supports is the one that is discussed first and the contrast it with another view. By discussing George Bush first the ideas of Bush are imbedded in the mind and then when discussion of Al Gore is presented it is in the mind to compare it with the previous discussion. This might not necessarily be true but I do feel strongly about this claim. The reason why is, when someone wants to present a unbiased presentation they will compare and contrast the positions of both candidates throughout the whole article and not separate it into two sections.

The essay “The Climate emergency” is based on a speech made by Al Gore at Yale University in April 2004 to a room full of students. Al Gore is the former Vice President of the United States under President Bill Clinton. He is also an environmental rights activist. In the beginning of the speech the former vice president shares a story about his trip to a Shoneys Restaurant with his wife Tipper to draw the audience in. (300-301). Once he captures their attention he is able to focus them on his real message.
