For this week's discussion, I thought I'd focus on an example that I believe exemplifies effective
communication from a single person to an entire nation, and that example would be JFK's
inaugural address. JFK's inaugural address illustrated a president of a nation effecting
communicating to their people of that nation by properly by bestowing them the message about
how nationalistic he is and wields a necessity to revolutionize this country for the better. JFK
knows that in order the people of his nation to respect him, his inaugural address must not only
instill confidence for his people, but also speak out to them by telling them what they can do to
strive for a better future.
This is evident by the most iconic line in his speech, "Ask not what your country can do for you,
ask what you can do for your country". This line effectively displays strong communication to
the country from JFK, as illustrates to them a thought-provoking statement that calls to action for
the people to do the greater good and what is morally correct. This line that he exerts aligns itself
with his belief that democracy flourishes only when the people contribute their work/skills for
what is good, and that it is for specific individuals to rise up as leaders and influence others to
follow their footsteps and contribute to society and people around them for the sense of
morality.
