Question

How does Kennedy use the juxtaposition to assure his audience "that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans--born in this century, tempted by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace"; further pointing out that "we observe today not a victory of party, but a celebration of freedom--symbolizing an end, as well as a beginning--signifying renewal, as well as change"?

Answer 1

He uses ethos to make the people of America believe what he says.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Kennedy said the rights cannot come from the hands of a man but it is in the generoisity of the state. he said if a free society cannot help manypoor people, then it cannot save the few rich people.

• 'The torch has been passed' makes the people patriotic and gives assurance to the people to trust him. He also makes people have faith in the decision he takes.

• He creates a sense of feeling which makes people think what will he do as a President.
