Read the excerpt from President Clinton's 2001 farewell address.
Talja [164]

Clinton uses an appeal to credibility in this expert of his 2001 farewell address. An appeal to credibility can also be called ethos. In ethos, an audience is convinced by a person's authority. Because the soon to be ex-president is saying that he is idealistic, hopeful, and confident of the future of America, he leaves his audience to believe the same thing due to his position of authority or power.

how can people ensure that the government hears the voices of the people and takes them seriously and fairly considers their ide
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

You need to make a petition and have a certain amount of people to sign it, (let´s say you need/want 25,000 people to sign it to stop animal abuse, and have no more kill shelters, and stop lab testing on domestic animals.) i know that it´s very specific. Then you can go to the city´s courthouse, give them the official petition document, and ask the judge to give this to whoever is in charge of the city/state. Then you need to keep calling and write a letter to the white house/whoever is in charge to ask them to make a change in what you want them to change, i´m not a good person at explaining things, but i am speaking from my experience.

What effect did the explosion of the Columbia space shuttle have on the hubble space telescope​
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The accident of the Columbia space shuttle made the repairs to the Hubble microscope uncertain, as well as the future of this telescope.

Explanation:

The Hubble telescope was a major scientific breakthrough, both in terms of its creation and its launch. It has been in space for over thirty years and there is no date for its shutdown.

This telescope needs maintenance in order to function effectively, however this maintenance has not been done for some time and it is uncertain when it will happen. This uncertainty is an effect that the Columbia space shuttle accident caused. That's because Columbia was responsible for maintaining Hubble, but it exploded when it returned to Earth, killing the entire crew. This made the telescope's repairs uncertain, expensive and dangerous, discouraging its execution.
