Politicians use logical fallacies to persuade listeners during their speeches. For this assignment, watch a public speech by a politician (any politician will do) and take notes about any logical fallacies that they use during their speech. Write a paper that identifies five fallacies in their argument. Your paper should address the following:
• Quote and correctly identify the type of fallacy used
• Discuss why the argument is a fallacy and how it seeks to persuade listeners.
• Reframe the fallacies using different terms to show why the argument does not make sense.
• Discuss how and if the argument could be restated to avoid the fallacy. Once rephrased, is the argument still sound?
