Final Post

If I could change one thing about rhetoric, and this is a large concept that is difficult to define, I would change the subtle deceit that so significantly characterizes the art today. If rhetoric is going to be true and truly effective, I believe that it should also be truly honest. If the rhetorician makes his point plainly and the audience is supportive, both parties achieve the highest and most pure level of success and satisfaction. I also believe that the skill of such a rhetorician would be magnificent since how they say what they say would have to be so masterfully and carefully conducted. In this way only truth could be promoted because only it could win and find agreement in those it addresses. This idea might seem confusing, but I am having a hard time formulating my hypothesis in words. Still, this is what I would change.
