whats a persasive essay look likeno

There is a lot to agree with in the above
answer:


1.  Yes, the intro needs to have a opening sentence
that grabs the reader's attention followed by a strong thesis, generally written in one
sentence stating your three areas of support (For example:  The three principal reasons
that I support some candidate is that she has a proven track record of addressing her
constituents' concerns; she supports many of the concerns that I personally have; she
has never been reprimanded by her governing body in her entire professional career.).
 This is the then followed by a lead in sentence that makes the reader want to continue
to read!


2.  Yes, you need proof.  So for each body
paragraph (three total), you should take each area of support and well, support it!
 Prove that the candidate addresses her constituents' concerns in Body #1; prove that
she supports personal concerns in Body #2; and prove that she has never been reprimanded
in Body #3.


3.  Yes, use powerful and power-filled words.
 Don't use "25 cent" words when you can use something more meaningful  Don't said "said"
if you can use "declared."  Don't use "went" if you can use
"traveled."


4.  Now here is where I part ways with above
response.  I would NEVER show the other side's concern.  Next thing you know....you
proved their point!


5.  Yes, reiterate your thesis.  And
close with a nice "ribbon" on top your completed
package.


Also...remember to start each body paragraph and
the conclusion with a transitional phrase or word.


Good
practice - I know, practice is a dirty word - is to try to write from the opposing side.
 If you can prove a point that you are AGAINST, you are sure to be able to prove one you
FAVOR!


Good luck!
