Rogerian Speech

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 dont need to use citations, but please do not create statistics or facts.  You might also find this video on the Rogerian form helpful:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9knvRXU8zQ&feature=youtu.be.
Please note that you have the option of having the text of the video appear if you check the CC icon at the bottom of the screen. Does your speech follow the pattern generally?
