According to the text except, the words that describe democracy are "<em>and that the </em><em>government </em><em>of the </em><em>people</em><em>, by the people and for the people"</em>.

<h3>What is Democracy</h3>

Democracy is a form of government where the people have the freedom of coming together to decide legislation and in areas where they are unable to do so, they may delegate individuals to help them out.

  Democracy was defined by president Abraham Lincoln as the government of the people, by the people and for the people.

This definition by President Lincoln illustrates that in a democratic  setting, the people hold absolute power in deciding their leader.

This also means that the people are in the center of the government because the government is run by their elected representatives.

Luda [366]

Answer: long-term process involving a change in responsibilities/duties

Explanation:

The elimination of the position of Texas State Treasurer apart from being the dynamics of the election between the last State Treasurer, Martha Whitehead and Republican opponent David Hartman in 1994, it was also as a result of a long-term process involving a change in the duties of the state Treasurer.

Overtime, the office of the State Treasurer became redundant as the duties and responsibilities of the Treasurer were carried out by the office of Comptroller of public account. Thus there was no more need for the position.

Martha Whitehead who ran for office in 1994 promised to abolish the office if she won and she did.

In 1995, legislation was passed to scrap the office.

Alex777 [14]

- How can photos be used as alternate forms of argument?

It can be used as a visual proof to convince others about your point.

Argument often derived from personal conviction.  This personal conviction often really hard to get rid off even if the oppositions provides a clear and logical argument to debunk it.

Visual proof often harder to deny since it can depict a certain situation in a more convincing way rather than personal recollection . Often times, this can be a lot stronger compared to trying to convince others simply by using words.

-  Can a photo convince you to take a specific action or to think a certain way?

Absolutely.

For example,  Let's say that you hear 2 people arguing in the court. Person A accused person B for killing person C at December 12th. Person B denied the accusation.

At this point, you probably not really sure who's in the right.

But, let's say that<u> person B showed a photo that proved he is actually in another city</u> on December 12th and it is impossible for him to be at the crime scene on the time of person C attack.

That photo could easily win the argument in person B's favor and convince others who witness it that he is telling the truth.
