In his news conference, John F. Kennedy utilizes juxtaposition and parallelism to support his idea that with the decline of huge companies, the price of things is going to start to increase significantly for Americans. The first rhetorical strategy Kennedy uses in his news conference is juxtaposition to show that with the decline in workers and the decline in profit will create an increase in prices around the country. This is shown when he says "when we are devoting our energies to economic recovery and stability, when we are asking Reservists to leave their homes and families for months on end, and servicemen to risk their lives- and four were killed in the last two days in Viet Nam- and asking union members to hold down their wage requests,

In The American Crisis,Thomas Paine uses parallelism to point out the fact that if the colonists want to retaliate, everyone needs to play a part. When he tells the people to stand up for themselves and retaliate he states, ¨…I call not upon a few, but upon all…¨ (Paine 118). The citation shows how Paine wants to make it clear to the reader that it is every colonists´ obligation to retaliate against England, and he uses parallelism to make that clear. Similar to how Paine uses parallelism, in The Declaration of Independence, Jefferson uses parallelism to remind the reader of why the colonies need independence. When Jefferson talks about why the colonists need to retaliate he states, ¨Our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor¨ (Jefferson 115).

One instance of Emerson’s parallelism is the first sentence of his second paragraph: “There is a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better, for worse, as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till” (Emerson 2). The various clauses in the sentence have the same rhythm, thus creating parallelism. Using the parallelism to give his writing rhythm and flow, Emerson creates a scholarly, academic feel in this piece. Similarly, Emerson uses many compound and complex sentence structures throughout the piece, such as “Not for nothing one face, one character, one fact makes much impression on him, and another none” (Emerson 2). He uses this advanced syntax in order to give his sentences an air of sophistication, making him sound educated and intelligent.
Reagan motivates the audience readers by telling everybody meaningful statements. He uses parallelism multiple times throughout his speechlike when he says, “it is rather to make it work -- work with us, not over us; to stand by our side, not ride on our back” (par. 17).

The effect of the parallelism in paragraph 14 is to show the different sides of the argument he shows in the paper. The first sentence shows how people “think with their party, not independently” (720). His main argument is presented in his first long sentence that everyone live in the midst of self-conformity.
