In his speech, Kennedy highlighted that his goal was to bring change as a leader, and addressing the USSR, did not want to continue in the Cold War.

Throughout our history, nation leaders have controlled major decisions regarding war, battles, political and economic decisions, even leading up to mere propaganda posts. JFK and Nikita Khrushchev, both strong leaders with strong personalities led the Cuban missile crisis, leading to the problem ending with both parties taking away their resources. The personalities of these leaders had affected the outcome of the Cuban missile crisis, as they are very different leaders, with different reputations to uphold as well, so they had to respond varyingly.

In Kennedy’s speech, almost the opposite to Roosevelt, he wanted to stop stockpiling and creating weapons of war, for fear we could one day destroy all mankind by war. “Finally, to those nations who would make themselves our adversary, we off not a pledge but but a request: that both sides begin anew the quest for peace, before the dark powers of destruction unleashed by science engulf all humanity in planned or accidental self-destruction.” 12. Also with wanting to stop creating and stockpiling weapons, Kennedy wanted to encourage that together as a world, we should work together for the betterment of mankind, rather than focus on rivalries and war. “Let both sides explore what problems unite us instead if belaboring those problems which divides us… Let both sides seek to invoke the wonders of science instead of its terrors.

Kennedy starts off by telling us how the world and freedom is in major danger, being close to a nuclear war, telling us that it has the power to end the human species (3).

This means that we should negotiate to make a means with that someone not because we have to negotiate to stay safe from that someone. Kennedy then says that the goal would to have the world work together to explore problems, have a common arm control and be equal in weaponry power, and work together to unlock new sciences (16-18).
Kennedy made sure to properly address his audience, he also maintained a professional attitude throughout the speech since it is a formal occasion. Kennedy also made sure to include the usage of “we” throughout the speech to make his audience feel as though he was talking with them, not at them. Kennedy really worked hard to instill the belief that as a nation, we can accomplish great things and that by working together, we can accomplish the goal of landing a man on the moon. However, the former president also made sure to
His diction is overwhelmingly positive, repeating words such as “true,” “peace,” “right,” “good,” and “free” when projecting his hopes for the future of Europe. He then directly addresses the audience with a metaphor, that they live on a “defended island of freedom,” but their lives are “part of the main.” His appeal is unifying, and allows him to transition from flattering and sympathizing with the audience to persuading them.

Even though he never saw the event, any speech can be compared to his “We Chose to go to the Moon” because every speech has a purpose and uses rhetorical components in some way that benefits the speaker. Pathos, ethos, and logos were used so that the audience gets the speaker what he/she wants. That was the same as what Kennedy did through his speech.
