 * 1) What is the purpose of the speech? Provide a brief statement of context.
 * 2) Who is the audience?
 * 3) Which appeal (ethos, pathos, logos) is most prevalent? How do you know?
 * 4) Is the argument effective? Were any logical fallacies used?
 * 5) How could the argument have been strengthened?


 * 1) The purpose of this speech is to lift up everyone's spirits in telling them to not mourn over the situation, to learn from it, and to most importantly not take anything for granted.
 * 2) The football team, friends, and families.
 * 3) Pathos most applies to this speech because it is filled with much emotion when lifting up the spirits of the audience.
 * 4) This argument is very effective. In this speech there was a certain realization that bad things can happen to good people and it can not only effect one single person, it can effect many others. The speech is a reminder that we all must give thanks and look deep inside ourselves when bad things do happen to us.
 * 5) Considering this is a very pathos-based speech, logos and ethos would not have really fitted into the speech very well. With that being said, I would not have done anything to change this speech.

Satire Video
media type="youtube" key="bGwoJn6-J7g" height="315" width="420" Welp... This is my satirical video..

This is a campaigning ad made for Donn Janes running for congressman in Tennessee. The video is satirical because of the way the two men act at the debate. They blame everything on other and mock each other, and most importantly, they have strings attached to their arms with a man above controlling them both. At the end of the commercial, Donn Janes says he has "no strings attached", and that's why he'd make a good congressman for Tennessee.
