Download or read book President's Speech written by C. Edwin Vilade and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012-10-16 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With vivid insight and rousing examples, The President’s Speech takes apart America’s most important presidential addresses, phrase by phrase, and examines the pivotal, often familiar, and always potent language that presidents past used to mold public opinion. Author and speechwriter Edwin Vilade provides the framework for each speech, both within the context of its era and also as a point on a timeline of our country’s long history. Starting at George Washington’s Farewell Address and ending with George W. Bush’s Axis of Evil State of the Union speech, Vilade reveals the varied and often conflicting points of view that shaped the final famous words. Color facsimiles show actual edits, deletions, additions, and handwritten notes to illustrate how remarkable and forceful language was crafted, sometimes at the last minute, into enduring words made famous by their timing, context, delivery, and power, from the 1823 Monroe Doctrine to Ronald Reagan’s “tear down that wall, Mr. Gorbachev” speech at Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate, revealing political and social currents that frame these words for modern times.

Book Synopsis Why Presidential Speech Locations Matter by : Shannon Bow O'Brien
Download or read book Why Presidential Speech Locations Matter written by Shannon Bow O'Brien and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores speeches by American presidents. Domestic public presidential speechmaking helps us understand the pressures, priorities, and targeted audiences of different presidencies. Many administrations generally work to reinforce already existing support though some may try to reach out to new areas. Census areas help us better understand where presidents prioritize speeches in certain areas of the country. Designated Market Areas, or media markets, allow us to look at presidential speechmaking without geographical constraints and focus on areas of population concentrations. Electoral College results show that most administrations prefer to give speeches in places where they have the most electoral support to reinforce their bases. The chapter on vacation locations explores how some presidents use Camp David or their homes as places to actively speak, while some administrations just use them as retreats. Foreign speeches allow us to see that most presidents prefer to speak in openly free countries more than other places.

Book Synopsis The Sound of Leadership by : Roderick P. Hart
Download or read book The Sound of Leadership written by Roderick P. Hart and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did Gerald Ford speak in public once every six hours during 1976? Why did no president spreak in Massachusetts during one ten-year period? Why did Jimmy Carter conduct public ceremonies four times more often than Harry Truman? Why are television viewers two-and-a-half times more likely to see a president speak on the nightly news than to hear him speak? The Sound of Leadership answers these questions and many more. Based on analysis of nearly 10,000 presidential speeches delivered between 1945 and 1985, this book is the first comprehensive examination of the ways in which presidents Truman through Reagan have used the powers of communication to advance their political goals. This communication revolution has produced, Roderick P. Hart argues, a new form of governance, one in which public speech has come to be taken as political action. Using a rhetorical appraoch, Hart details the features of this new American presidency by carefully examining when and where presidents spoke in public during the last four decades and what they said. Even though presidents have been speaking more and more, Hart reveals, they have been saying less and less. Rather than leading the nation, the modern president usually offers only the hollow "sound" of leadership. Written with great flair and acuteness, The Sound of Leadership will become a standard guide to the voices of modern presidential politics.

Book Synopsis Presidential Speechwriting by : Kurt Ritter
Download or read book Presidential Speechwriting written by Kurt Ritter and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2004-03-15 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of the media presidency through radio and television broadcasts has heightened the visibility and importance of presidential speeches in determining the effectiveness and popularity of the President of the United States. Not surprisingly, this development has also witnessed the rise of professional speechwriters to craft the words the chief executive would address to the nation. Yet, as this volume of expert analyses graphically demonstrates, the reliance of individual presidents on their speechwriters has varied with the rhetorical skill of the officeholder himself, his managerial style, and his personal attitude toward public speaking. The individual chapters here (two by former White House speechwriters) give fascinating insight into the process and development of presidential speechwriting from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s administration to Ronald Reagan’s. Some contributors, such as Charles Griffin writing on Eisenhower and Moya Ball on Johnson, offer case studies of specific speeches to gain insight into those presidents. Other chapters focus on institutional arrangements and personal relationships, rhetorical themes characterizing an administration, or the relationship between words and policies to shed light on presidential speechwriting. The range of presidents covered affords opportunities to examine various factors that make rhetoric successful or not, to study alternative organizational arrangements for speechwriters, and even to consider the evolution of the rhetorical presidency itself. Yet, the volume’s single focus on speechwriting and the analytic overviews provided by Martin J. Medhurst not only bring coherence to the work, but also make this book an exemplar of how unity can be achieved from a diversity of approaches. Medhurst’s introduction of ten “myths” in the scholarship on presidential speeches and his summary of the enduring issues in the practice of speechwriting pull together the work of individual contributors. At the same time, his introduction and conclusion transcend particular presidents by providing generalizations on the role of speechwriting in the modern White House.
Book Synopsis Talking with the President by : John Wilson
Download or read book Talking with the President written by John Wilson and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2015 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a pragmatic analysis of presidential language. Pragmatics is concerned with "meaning in context," or the relationship between what we say and what we mean. John Wilson explores the various ways in which U.S. Presidents have used language within specific social contexts to achieve specific objectives. This includes obfuscation, misdirection, the use of metaphor or ambiguity, or in some cases simply lying. He focuses on six presidents: John F. Kennedy, Richard M. Nixon, Ronald W. Reagan, William F. Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack H. Obama. These presidents cover most of the last half of the twentieth century, and the first decade of the twenty first century, and each has been associated with a specific linguistic quality. John F. Kennedy was famed for his quality of oratory, Nixon for his manipulative use of language, Reagan for his gift of telling stories, Clinton for his ability to engage the public and to linguistically turn arguments and descriptions in particular directions. Bush, on the other hand, was famed for his inability to use language appropriately, and Obama returns us to the rhetorical flourishes of early Kennedy. In the case of each president, a range of specific examples are explored in order to highlight the ways in which a pragmatic analysis may provide an insight into presidential language. In many cases, what the president says is not necessarily what the president means.
Book Synopsis My Fellow Americans . . . Donald J. Trump by : Donald J. Trump
Download or read book My Fellow Americans . . . Donald J. Trump written by Donald J. Trump and published by Kallisti Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donald J. Trump burst upon the American political landscape in 2015 with his brash, America-first rhetoric. His up-beat, informal style earned him the sobriquet “The Inspirational President.” You will discover in this unabridged and annotated collection of President Trump’s most important and pivotal speeches and remarks both the inner-workings and the inner-beliefs of the man who stunned the world to become the forty-fifth president of the United States of America, such as . . . - Mr. Trump’s presidential bid announcement - The persuasive “What Have You Got to Lose?” speech to black voters - President Trump’s four State of the Union addresses - The inspirational Mount Rushmore speech - President Trump’s remarks to the UN General Assembly - And many others. The ABOUT US book series brings to life the exciting and vibrant history of the United States with classic and inspiring books that celebrate the bravery, audacity, and daring of the men and women who founded and created the nation that is the beacon of freedom to the world. The My Fellow Americans series presents in unabridged and annotated form the policy-defining and personality-revealing orations and speeches of the American presidents for everyone to experience and learn. FOREWORD The president of the United States is the most powerful person in the world. This has been true for a very long time — perhaps from the very beginning. So it is important to know and understand these men who sought and attained this highest office in the land. And what better way to understand the presidents than through their own words? About US Books and Kallisti Publishing Inc. is pleased to present to you the first volume of the My Fellow Americans series, a line of books that will present to the ages the important and significant speeches and orations of the presidents of the United States of American. This inaugural volume showcases America’s “inspirational” president, Donald J. Trump, the billionaire businessman who, rather than taking the traditional route of governor — senator — president, instead leaped straight to the top in a hard-fought race against then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. Some people think President Trump to be brash. Others think him to be rude, insensitive, and even worse. Yet others still describe him as inspirational and uplifting. What you will discover as you read candidate and President Trump’s speeches is a person who ardently believes in the American Dream, who looks up to heroes, and who sees beyond the horizon to “the best” that is to come. Ultimately, his own words are here so you can make your own decision. Choosing which speeches to include in this volume presented some difficulty because President Trump often spoke “off-script” and talked extemporaneously. Of course, no volume of a president’s speeches would be complete without his State of the Union addresses; thus, all four are presented here. Remarks to the UN General Assemble are important declarations of foreign policy, so they, too, are all included. That left a lot of speeches through which to sift, and what were chosen were Mr. Trump’s famous presidential bid speech, Candidate Trump’s plea to black voters, President Trump’s Inaugural Address, the inspirational Mount Rushmore speech, and others that highlight President Trump’s policy positions, vision, and goals. Please enjoy this deep-dive into the mind of Donald J. Trump through his speeches and remarks. And please look forward to the upcoming volumes in the My Fellow Americans series. So, as the presidents end their speeches, I leave you with a hearty thank you and a strong God bless America!

Book Synopsis Inside the Presidential Debates by : Newton N. Minow
Download or read book Inside the Presidential Debates written by Newton N. Minow and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newton Minow’s long engagement with the world of television began nearly fifty years ago when President Kennedy appointed him chairman of the Federal Communications Commission. As its head, Minow would famously dub TV a “vast wasteland,” thus inaugurating a career dedicated to reforming television to better serve the public interest. Since then, he has been chairman of PBS and on the board of CBS and elsewhere, but his most lasting contribution remains his leadership on televised presidential debates. He was assistant counsel to Illinois governor Adlai Stevenson when Stevenson first proposed the idea of the debates in 1960; he served as cochair of the presidential debates in 1976 and 1980; and he helped create and is currently vice chairman of the Commission on Presidential Debates, which has organized the debates for the last two decades. Written with longtime collaborator Craig LaMay, this fascinating history offers readers for the first time a genuinely inside look into the origins of the presidential debates and the many battles—both legal and personal—that have determined who has been allowed to debate and under what circumstances. The authors do not dismiss the criticism of the presidential debates in recent years but do come down solidly in favor of them, arguing that they are one of the great accomplishments of modern American electoral politics. As they remind us, the debates were once unique in the democratic world, are now emulated across the globe, and they offer the public the only real chance to see the candidates speak in direct response to one another in a discussion of major social, economic, and foreign policy issues. Looking to the challenges posed by third-party candidates and the emergence of new media such as YouTube, Minow and LaMay ultimately make recommendations for the future, calling for the debates to become less formal, with candidates allowed to question each other and citizens allowed to question candidates directly. They also explore the many ways in which the Internet might serve to broaden the debates’ appeal and informative power. Whether it’s Clinton or Obama vs. McCain, Inside the Presidential Debates will be welcomed in 2008 by anyone interested in where this crucial part of our democracy is headed—and how it got there.
Book Synopsis The Bully Pulpit, Presidential Speeches, and the Shaping of Public Policy by : Jeffrey S. Ashley
Download or read book The Bully Pulpit, Presidential Speeches, and the Shaping of Public Policy written by Jeffrey S. Ashley and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-11-11 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Issue framing is the way that people, especially politicians, get other people to view a particular problem or issue. By framing the issue in a particular way, the goal is to get people to think about the issue, to believe that an action is required and, most importantly, to believe that a particular action (the one being proposed by the framer) is the right one. The use of language and imagery is an essential part of issue framing and has been an integral part of the presidency since our nation’s founding, but it has become particularly important since Theodore Roosevelt began to take his message directly to the people. This work examines a selected speech delivered by every president from Roosevelt through Barack Obama to show how language has been instrumental in directing policy. Each chapter will examine the situation or background for the problem, include a transcript of the speech the president delivered, and conclude with an analysis of the speech in terms of the particular frame that the speech utilized and the eventual outcome, or policy direction, inspired by the speech.
