Speech Responding to Bush's "Duty of Hope" Speech

Write a one-page speech for Gore to deliver in response to Bush's speech. Be sure to include:

- A Developed Counterclaim (What was good about Bush's idea?)

- A Convincing Critique (What are two or three questions or ideas that will make voters doubt Bush's idea?)

- Correct grammar, an appropriate tone, and effective transitions to help your audience follow your thinking.


For BONUS credit, practice using some of the rhetorical techniques you saw in Bush's speech in your own speech.  You could also use the texhniques we saw SInger use: analogies, anecdotes and questions and rebuttals.
