Yes these are good examples, and I found this site, but I need an issue current to 2009. Any ideas? Thanks!
Answered by Ms. Sue
Take a look at some of the solutions to our health care dilemma.

Or how about Iran's nuclear capabilities?

The economy also should provide you some examples.
Answered by Audrey
I guess these would work, but how would I identify the enthymeme? Who could I use as an example that used an enthymeme in their speech?
Answered by GuruBlue
Look at some of the news magazines, ie, Time, Newsweek. They will have exerpts from speeches and there will also be essays that you can read.
Answered by Audrey
Would the "above the influence" campagin against drugs be considered including enthymemes in their commericals? Could this be a possible example of a social issue today?
Answered by GuruBlue
Post the statement you are thinking about.
Answered by Audrey
I was referring to the Above the influence campaign. Just the commercials in general. I was going to reference the site that promotes "Above The Influence"
Answered by GuruBlue
