Read paragraph 1 of the draft of Franklin D. Roosevelt's Day of Infamy speech and then listen to the audio recording. Why does Roosevelt begin his speech by addressing his audience
when the draft includes no such address?

O By addressing his live audience directly, Roosevelt
creates intimacy and stresses that everyone must
listen carefully to what he is about to say.

O Speaking directly to his audience evokes a strong
emotional reaction in those members of Congress who
have been involved in peace talks.

O Roosevelt addresses his audience to ensure that only
a select few people remain in the room to hear what he
has to say about the Japanese attack.

O Roosevelt begins the speech by addressing those
listening in order to establish his authority over his
audience and to make the Japanese feel threatened.

The correct answer is "By addressing his live audience directly, Roosevelt creates intimacy and stresses that everyone must listen carefully to what he is about to say."

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
