One of the things that I noticed when watching one-minute plays is the characterizations the actors bring to what the writer has written and how the plot moves and is still an intelligible story. The Green Forest Characters: Elf, Kerry, Leopard Fade In on a very bright green forest. One day Elf was sitting on a green moss colored rock in the forest and he was wondering what he was going to do this day. Along came Kerry who seem to startle Elf. Elf: (shaken) Who are you and what are you doing walking in the green forest all alone? Kerry: (unsure of self) I am Kerry a caregiver who is very lost. Can you show me the way to Glencross? I have business there. Both start walking down the path that seemed to just appear out of nowhere. Kerry: …show more content…

These are the herbs that help when I have a headache and not feeling like myself. Elf: You seem to have more in your bag there is that why you are going to Glencross and the person you are going to help. Kerry: Yes, the man is well to do and has tried everything that his doctor in town has prescribed and he remembered me somehow. Elf: Interesting. We are almost at the end of the forest and Glencross is right down the gravel road. Kerry and Elf continues walking down the forest path. They reach the gravel road and the two part. Kerry: Thank you for the directions and the company through the forest. On the way back I hope to see you again and you can tell me how Leopard is doing. Elf: Will do and good luck on you care giving business and I hope your patient feels better too. (Elf turns around and Elf is not longer good.) Kerry enters Glencross and cares for her patient. Kerry on her way back home she has to go through the Green Forest again and she hopes it is just as uneventful as the journey to Glencross. Kerry: Oh, Mister Elf are you here?

In a “Vietnam Veterans against the war”, John Kerry’s comment on President Nixon not wanting to become, “the first President to lose a war,” illustrates just how insistent Nixon was on maintaining a superior Presidential image of power. Ironically, Nixon has one of the more, if not the most, tarnished Presidential image due to the Watergate scandal. Kerry’s speech drove the idea that the Veterans fighting in Vietnam did not believe that they were there to do good and did not feel that they were the “heroes” liberalizing the Vietnamese from the dangers of communism. As he notes, most people there did not understand the difference between communism and democracy. The freedom the Vietnamese sought was liberation from the helicopters, the bombs,

Passionate John Kerry, a vietnam veteran, in his speech, Vietnam Veterans Against the War Statement, to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations on April 23, 1971, argues that the soldiers sent to Vietnam were told to do terrible things and that they were fighting for reasons they did not even know. Kerry supports his argument by implementing anaphora, utilizing a pronoun switch, applying rhetorical questions, appeals to logos through the use of statistics, quotes, and an anecdote, and appeals to pathos through imagery and powerful language. The author’s purpose is to depict to the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations exactly what occurred in Vietnam and why they should be against the war too. The author writes in a belligerent tone for the Senate

In light of the 10th anniversary of the Iraq war, Tomas Young, a former veteran on hospice writes “The Last Letter” (2013). In Young’s letter, he elucidates that the war was anything but necessary. He asserts that the lives of veterans, the family of those veterans, and even those in Iraq and America, will be spent in “unending pain and grief.” His purpose in persuading the audience, in this case George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, to change perspective of the war, its many deaths, and disappointments, to call out their reasons for initiating the war and to call out the injustice of what the Iraq war has done to millions of people, is successfully achieved in Young’s letter with the use of a tremendous amount of figurative language and appeals
