In reply to the discussion: Why the arguments of Obama's defenders leave many cold. [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)You can't just get offended and reply in a huff. That will not persuade anyone to agree with you. It won't even persuade anyone that you know what you are talking about. Why do you support Obama?
Do you like his stance on the payroll tax vacation?
Do you like his support for the rebels in Libya?
Do you like his health insurance reform plan? If so, what do you like about it? If you want to win an argument with someone who disagrees with you, you have to organize your ideas and present the evidence supporting your argument with some sincerity and persuasiveness.
You cannot succeed in making a case if you just point your finger and scream. During the campaign, how are you going to persuade Independents and Republicans that they should vote for Obama if you can't even persuade disillusioned Democrats.
You better be able to do better than just scold people for disagreeing with you.
