Avoiding Fallaceies in Argument

What should you avoid in your speech content after writing your speech outline? In the chapter 15, there is very important section, which is talked about the fallacies in arguments has brought me a new concept about my persuasive speech. Coopman has summarized the fallacies in four sections: claim, evidence, reasoning, and responding. After demonstrating some of fallacies in the speech buddy video, the pro home schooling, I found they are very useful. When I write my persuasive speech outline, I could go back this section to avoid common fallacies happing in my argument outline. We usually assert our opinions unconsciously by personal feeling or common sense, but we ignore our audience feelings. One of the examples in responding fallacy is “ad hominem-personal attack.” For instance, when you dislike a political party, you deny all of its historic efforts or positive contributions to our country. This kind of personal prejudice will be harmed your credibility in your speech. Therefore, we should pay more attention to this section to avoid a fail in our persuasive speech.
