Rhetoric plays an important role in the structure of a speech. Without strong elements, a speech cannot attract people in a positive way nor can it have the effect of influencing large numbers of them. However, when a piece has a strong rhetorical structure, it is able to develop a strong argument and get the main concept across. Rhetorical devices often help create a clear and compelling opinion that will give the audience a positive perspective of the notion being expressed. Through the use of rhetoric, speeches and writings become memorable and convincing. Many history speakers work hard to achieve the goal of creating a strong and influential essay, but many fail to do so. On the other hand, the few who do it do it wonderfully. Three major pieces that show how strong the rhetorical backbone is are John F. Kennedy's Inaugural Address, Ahmedabad (Non-Cooperation) by Mohandas Gandhi, I Have A Dream by Martin Luther King Jr. These pieces are among the most famous in history because of their influential elements were formed through their use of rhetoric. One of the most famous presidential speeches is Kennedy's inaugural address.

In his speech, Kennedy speaks about his knowledge of the problems facing America and speaks realistically. Unlike many, he recognizes that the problems encountered cannot be resolved during his presidency, but instead he expresses... in the middle of the newspaper...... audience. As he speaks, his words build on each other, creating a rhythmic phrase of his goals that amplify his message to listeners. Story leaders often use rhetorical devices to describe a goal in which they hope the audience will be inspired to follow. . The plays Inaugural Address by John F. Kennedy, Ahmedabad (Non-Cooperation) by Mohandas Gandhi, I Have A Dream by Martin Luther King Jr. are each perfect examples of strong plays made up of multiple rhetorical strategies. All of these pieces, especially King's I Have A Dream, contain a large amount of ethos, logos and pathos, in order to achieve the feat of connecting the speaker, audience and subject into one.
