Barack Obama Acceptance Speech

Ethos:
“These are not whiners. They work hared, and they get back, and they keep going without complaint. These are the Americans I know!”
“These are my heroes, theirs are the stories that shape my life. On their behalf I intend to lead this country as President of the United States.”

Pathos:
“We love this country too much to let the next four years look too much like the last eight years.”
“Its time for us to change America and that’s why I am running for president of the United States.”

Logos:
“The record is clear, John McCain has voted with George Bush ninety percent of the time. Senator McCain likes to talk about judgment. But what does it say about your judgment when you think George Bush has been right more than ninety percent of the time.
“I will tap our natural gas reserves, invest in clean coal technology, and find ways to safely harness nuclear power.”
“I’ll invest 150 billion dollars in affordable, renewable sources of energy, wind power, solar power and a next generation of biofuels an investments that will lead to 5 million new jobs and pay well and can’t be outsourced.
