Jamieson sez that because of the television and the rhetoric which it promotes, Americans have lost the ability to critically approach associative arguments that would not withstand the scrutiny of a mind carefully trained in the practice of deliberative rhetoric. She analyzes a 1968 political ad ,“Hot Time in the Old Time Tonight,” as an example of what can get by when people are not able critically to approach television’s rhetorical appeals. Taking her arguments about the rhetoric promoted in television media today (associative, emotional, narrative, personal), do you find that recent political ads in the 2004 campaign commit the same sins that Jamieson locates in the “Hot Time” ad. If so, is this such a bad thing? Is it so wrong to have Americans voting based on their personal identification with, their trust of, and their associations to their candidates? In your post, closely analyze one of the commercials from the 2004 election (http://livingroomcandidate.movingimage.us/election/index.php?nav_action=... [1]). Explain (1) if this commercial does what Jamieson sez televised rhetoric typically does, and (2) if what this commercial does is really so bad a thing.
