Process Speech Self-Evaluation
This process speech was very different from the types of process speeches I had delivered in the past. Before, most process speeches I had given were demonstration speeches, such as telling a group of children the rules of a game or trying to explain to a fellow employee how to use a new type of computer program at work. This process speech was entitled The Decision-Making Process in Business Environment. It was a more abstract concept than I had conveyed in a speech before, and because of that, I was nervous that the audience would not be interested. I think it would have been helpful if I had started with a quote or a fact that was particularly attention-grabbing. Instead, I focused more on explaining the concept, and I think I lost some of my audiences attention in the process. I tried to do too much in the speech, rather than focusing on a few, core ideas.

Often, these arguments consider ethical situations: if the situation is wrong, then the solution must make it right" ("Writing Tip #21). Alexander identifies his men as the cause of being able to claim so many cities; "through your courage and endurance you have gained possession of Ionia, the Hellespont, both Phrygias,
Speech Pathology Some of my earliest childhood memories involve the brief period during first or second grade when I had to overcome a stuttering problem. I remember the social discomfort of worrying about how people might react to me once I started talking. I also remember the frustration of people talking to me as though I was unintelligent because they drew that conclusion from my speech pattern without listening to what
" In a 2008 interview, Theodore C. Sorensen, one of John F. Kennedy's speechwriters, compared the individual appeal of Bill and Hillary Clinton and the distinct styles of two great speakers of the classical period, Cicero and Demosthenes. Sorensen recalled how it was once said that when Cicero spoke, the crowds declared, "How well he spoke," but when Demosthenes spoke, the crowds exclaimed, "Let us march!" think it applies here," Mr.

The real words of King? "I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without having first spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today -- my own government." (quoted in: Husseini) The final major flaw is that Clinton addresses the black ministers with a severe racial hubris -- he never makes any mention of the racial differences that
