Who said that? It's kind of cheesy. 1) Talk about what a cheesy statement it is. 2) Ponder what was going through the speechwriters head when he had the eureka moment and came up with the line 3) Ponder what was going through the politicians head when he made his final decision that that line would move his audience if he just emphasised the correct words and showed his face of strength. lol, gl |

Cheesiness aside, here's a quick thought:
1) Talk about terrorism in general and then link it to recent terrorist attacks involving the USA (Oklahoma City, USS Cole, WTC '93 and '01) 2) Define what exactly the "foundation of America" is 3) Explain why terrorism cannot "shake the foundation" based on your definition in paragraph two, using the war on terror as an example I'm sure it could be better, but meh, for two minutes of thought I think it could get you started!

well, I need to talk about this quote : ![]() You'll need to clearly define the "foundation of America". I assume you're presenting only your side, and not arguing your own points. It might be rough, because in many ways terrorism HAS changed America. We detain every tan skinned person at airports. America is overall more racist towards people of middle eastern descent. America is founded on freedom. We've lost a TON of that in the war on terrorism. The 911 attacks have had a HUGE impact on America. Reading through the mail, warrantless wire tapping. Pretty much every value and right that American's take pride in has been violeted by our government in response to terrorism. Honestly, the best advice I can offer, is change your topic. |
