Carol is writing a rhetorical analysis about Shirley Chisholm’s presidential announcement speech and how it appealed to people’s

“I stand here now, without endorsement from many big-name politicians or celebrities or any other kind of prop.”
“But we are entering a new era in which we must as Americans demand stature and size in our national leadership.”
“Americans all over are demanding a new sensibility, a new philosophy of government from Washington.”
“The abiding concern of this administration has been one of political expediency rather than the needs of man’s nature.”
