Prior Claim:
Personally assimilation isn't by any means an a necessity. The concept of assimilationism comes from a racist time where the need for assimilation was driven by the society. Society in early America was an inheretly racist time as it was the time of the Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. This, in part was the reason assimilationism became such a large part of Americana. I think as a whole assimilationism is a racist societal problem, as Assimilation contributes to the melting pot ideals set in Modern America. Melting Pot of ideals as a whole benefits a society by having different view points, it allows for a more beautiful democracy.
Counter Claim:
Assimilation isn't a racist system, more or less it's system that allows for other groups, apart from America, to feel more like an Americans. Integration of another ideal system is a great thing, but more or less making it Americanized contributes a sort of Foriegn American Patriotism. That allowing a group to integrate their belief system is better for America as it shows that we are a melting pot. Full assimilation isn't what I'm asking for, but rather an integration of the best parts of another society but leave out the parts not inheretly American.
The purpose of a society's oral tradition is to teach lessons about important cultural values. Through stories you tell children how they should behave, and also tell them about their ancestors, etc.

The correct answer is A. The passage appeals to logos.
Explanation:
The appeal to logos focuses on supporting the author's point of view by using reasoning. This occurs in the excerpt presented because the author of this text uses reasoning or logical arguments to explain how the Declaration of independence includes all men no matter their race, religion, etc. This can be seen in "It does not say some men, but it says all men" that explain the author's main point, as well as, logical reasons such as "does not say all Protestants, but it says all men, which includes Catholics" because this argument is a conclusion that can be drawn using logic. This means the author relies on logic and reason, which makes this passage to use the appeal to logos.
