When attempting to clear to a reader and appealing to their understanding, using examples and academic, clear diction are very helpful. Examples back up your points and leave open space for explanation and commentary that would further the readers understanding, and your word choice is what sets the stage for what you are writing about.
I hope this helps! :)
The Infamy Speech given by the United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt to the US Congress. The date was December 8, 1941, on the day after the Empire of Japan's attack on the US naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
Taking into consideration the most important elements of analyzing a speech we can start by identifying the speaker's objectives:
What is the speaker’s goal and the primary message being delivered? This particular speech sets up examples of Japanese attacks not only to U.S. but also at other parts of the world, it quotes the names of the cities. It's objective is to inform, to persuade and justify U.S. actions upon Japan's attack.
Other important things to take into account when analyzing a speech is the audience and the context for the Speech, where and when is the speech being delivered. And the key demographic features of the audience; which in this case are the american citizens. In addition to the live audience there was an external target audience: the mass world media.
For a good speech structure, In the speech opening there must be a controversial statement; by saying: "A date which will live in infamy" that goal is accomplished.The body of the speech is organized logically as it follows bullets. He supported his arguments by providing examples of cities that where also under Japanese attacks.
The conclusion of the speech is appropriate, as there is a call-to-action when he requested the Congress to declasre a state of war. The language is enthusiastic and connected to the audience because in general the language was appropriate for the audience, the speaker articulated clearly and the sentences were short and easy to understand.

Answer:
The main idea of Abraham Lincoln's First Inaugural Address is that<u> the Southern states had no reason to worry for their personal freedom and well being</u>.
Explanation:
Lincoln was elected on November 6, 1860, and before he took office, on March 4, 1861, seven southern states had left the federation. In his inaugural address, Lincoln made clear his position regarding slavery in the South: "I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so".
In this way, Lincoln carefully repeated the very clear position of his new government on the issue of slavery, in order to calm the South. He would not interfere with the institution of slavery in states where it already existed and was protected by the Constitution.
