1. “Celebration of freedom”, “abolish all forms of human poverty”, “hand of God”, “new generation of Americans”, “Liberty”, “convert our good words in a good deed”, “United Nations”, and “national loyalty” stood out for me. This is because there had been the requirement of making commitments and changes to the American society during the time of President Kennedy. The focus had been on acting and making moves for future. 2. Pathos had been used by Kennedy in order to make the citizens realize about the misuse of power of the majority and the exploitation of the existence of the minorities. There had been the reminding of the citizens that they had been God’s chosen children to spread the emotions of love, freedom, liberty, brotherhood and happiness.
