Beginning of a Persuasive Speech & Outline

Intro:

1. In history we are told amazing stories about amazing things and amazing people.
2. Like hurricane Katrina, 9/11, Pearl Harbor , and the big bang theory.
3. Have you ever wondered if there’s more to these events than what we are told or if it’s even true.
4. Today I am going to prove and persuade you all that Ben Franklin is a big fat phony.
5. I will prove three things about Bennie:

1. How hard it is to attract a lightning bolt,
2. The method he used could not work, and
3. Ben Franklin did not discover electricity.

So now that I told you the three things I will prove let's start with the first one.

Body:

I. How hard is it to attract lightning.

A. You have to have something that attracts lightning.

1. Some type of metal would work fine.
2. Pointing something sharp and pointy up at the sky.

B. You have to be at the right spot at the right time.

1. You have to be at a spot that is surrounded by lightning and it has to be high.
2. You have to be outside when it is raining and there is lightning outside.

So now that we know the conditions that it have to be in effect this leads me to my next point.

II. Ben’s method couldn’t work.

A. A kite back in those days couldn’t fly in the rain.

1. Kites back in the day were made pretty weak
2. Kites were made out of thin paper and wooden sticks, so they couldn’t fly in the rain.

B. A key and a plain glass jar couldn’t hold lightning.

1. A regular metal key is not strong enough to stop lightning in its tracks to go in a jar.
2. A jar could not hold lightning and start glowing in a way that electricity does.

So now that you know that, this leads me to my next point of proof.

III. Ben Franklin did not discover electricity.

A. He would have died if his kite did catch lightning.

1. The lightning would have went down the string and shocked him to death
2. I know he didn’t know about plastic and being grounded.

B. There is no evidence that he did it.

1. There is no piece of the kite in the museum
2. The key or pieces of the jar were saved.

Conclusion:

1. Ben Franklin may have done a lot of things but he did not discover electricity.
2. I have proven that it is hard to attract lightning, that Bennie’s method couldn’t work, and last but not least Bennie did not discover electricity.
3. I know what you're thinking, if he didn’t discover electricity then who did, but I'm not here to discuss that part so who cares.
4. So if you believe that he discovered electricity then I guess you believe in the tooth fairy or Santa Clause.
