Unit 3 Reading

There are two types of proposal arguments, practical proposals and policy proposals.  The main difference between the two types is the scope of the proposal.  Practical proposals calls for  action to solve local or immediate problems (Ramage 311). Policy proposals are broad and would include a resolve for major social, economic, or political problems affecting the common good (Ramage 311).
            Both argument need to have a base like we learned in the previous assignment. The enthymeme, grounds, warrant and backing (Ramage 313). The other way of developing your argument 1. Convince your group that a problem exists, 2. Show specifics, 3. Justification (Ramage 315).
                    One of the keys to follow after your base is developed. you must identifying what is at stake then find out who the targeted audience are, put yourself in their shoes (their stance), objection they might have, will they be uncomfortable? (Ramage 327).”
