Go down to the paragraph level and notice how to construct a sustained argument with a topic sentence, supporting details, exceptions, etc. You've probably learned it all before, but go back and re-learn it. Even take a class where you critique your fellow students' work. Once you go through one of those courses, go back and read one of Michelle's speeches. More advanced ways to develop your analytical skills are to study the Reading Comprehension sections in LSAT and GRE prep courses. Honestly, those are the best ways to start, and probably all you'll need. I say this because despite Michelle's passionate style, her success with her audiences, and her seemingly great rhetoric -- despite all this -- her mistakes are actually very elementary. 21. jsulman:

I have watched such group intertwining sessions on CNN, but came away feeling quite ignorant. I now would feel more comfortable in understanding the machinations of panel members, should the program be repeated or another similar one was aired. My gut feeling, aside from the information I acquired, is "scary business." In particular - Language is relational. Three-year olds know that when they begin to appreciate "knock-knock" jokes. What is the scary part is that ABCD practitioners mean that is that re-framing the language changes the actual contents of the issue at hand. Straight Marxism. There is no attempt to meet different conceptualizations, but rather imposing one's particularistic meaning on the same set of facts. Truth is a goner. Reconciliation is for the opposition to consider. ABCD'ers have a goal which must be met by all means necessary. Do I have that right?
