It takes time and effort to become a strong presidential candidate. It matters that we pick the right candidate rather than the person who doesn’t have a “long-time” plan.
This question is about Ronald Reagan's speech, entitled "A Time for Choosing".
Answer:
As you did not provide the lines to which this question refers, my answer may be a little inaccurate, because the numbering of lines I have from this course may be different from the numbering of lines to which your question refers.
However, the premise in the paragraph that begins on line 39 according to my text is that the loss of freedom is not beneficial to anyone and that it causes pain and suffering to anyone.
Explanation:
On line 39 Reagan talks about the experience that a friend of his, a Cuban refugee, had to face because of the country's lack of freedom. he had to flee from Cuba, even though he was a successful businessman. Some people reported that he was lucky to be able to leave the country and he even agrees, because he had this option, although many of his fellow citizens do not.
Reagan uses this story to show how the lack of freedom is harmful to anyone, regardless of their social position or their ability to escape. The lack of freedom is harmful for that reason, it cannot be allowed in America.
Bertie is using an understatement. It is the presentation of something as being smaller, worse, or less important than it actually is. It is when you represent something as less than what it is. This can be done in writing or in speech.
