WOODROW WILSON'S

FOURTEEN POINTS

ABOUT WOODROW WILSON

Wilson became the 28th president of the U.S. As a president, one of his many accomplishments was banning child labor, and limiting workers to an 8 hour work day. His slogan was "He Kept Us Out Of War". He did keep us out of war, until 4 years after his election when he decided that we could no longer remain neutral, and declared war on Germany on April 17, 1917.

HIS REASONING

Woodrow Wilson's reasoning for writing the Fourteen Points was to negotiate the terms for peace across the world. The world was his audience.

APPEALS

Wilson uses Logos in his speech. Logos means to persuade with reasoning. He is trying to create peace, and trying to convince the world to create peace along with him.

"now clear to the view of every public man whose thoughts do not still linger in an age that is dead and gone," (1918, Wilson)

"We entered this war because violations of right had occurred which touched us to the quick and made the life of our own people impossible unless they were corrected and the world secure once for all against their recurrence." (1918, Wilson)

EFFECTIVENESS OF HIS SPEECH

Seeing as how there was yet another war after World War 1, and that there have been wars after the Second World War, and the fact that we are even in a war today, the speech was not effective.
