4. Imagine that it is January 6, 1941, and you are the same age you are today. You have just listened to Roosevelt’s speech, and you disagree with him. What counterarguments would you make?

Answer 1

This selection from the four freedoms speech shows very effective rhetoric, “We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.”. This shows very clear rhetoric as Roosevelt explains the type of men who would betray their own people just so they can protect themselves.
