The text is clearly an ironic statement, that shows us how the social differences work between the leaders of the country and the common citizen of a determined population, this basically doesn´t allow them to have a real perspective of the different events or daily issues that can be seen in society and how to deal with them.

It has the intention to show us how difficult it is to have a positive impact on the quality of life of the average citizen when the <em>¨leaders¨</em> haven´t experienced different common problematics that are presented in society.

When a wealthy or powerful person (a country leader in this case) has never experienced common issues of lower social classes, it will make it considerably difficult the fact to act in a way that will bring effective benefits for the people.

Answer:

Ironic Statement

Explanation:

Yeah this is ironic. How can an elected official who is required to be upper upper class to have a chance of winning an election, truly understand the bulk of the country he is elected to represent. Our country is given the 'choice' of selecting an official to represent our views who are all all equally incapable of understanding our views

A persuasive speech on a question of fact is essentially the same as an informative speech.
sergij07 [2.7K]
A persuasive speech on a question of fact is essentially the same as an informative speech. False. A persuasive speech and an informative speech are still two completely different types of speeches. A persuasive speech is when you are trying to change the viewpoint of someone else to reflect one similar to yours or facts. An informative speech is solely presenting the information to someone else.
