Identifying Persuasive and Informative Speeches

Please go to the website American Rhetoric and review the list of Top 100 Speeches. Scan through the speeches and pick two speeches to analyze.

In this forum, describe the speeches you chose and whether or not they are informative or persuasive in nature. Explain why you believe the speeches you chose are informative or persuasive. Don't forget t use concepts from Lesson 5.

After discussing your chosen speeches, share with us if you think it's possible to present a purely informative speech without any bias or without using elements of persuasion? Why or why not?
