ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE Ladies and Gentlemen, we are faced with a catastrophe of horrendous proportions A zombie virus is overtaking the world. The epidemic has rapidly spread throughout the vast majority of the United States and is working its way to North Carolina It has already ravaged Europe, Africa, and several other continents with every continent already identifying over one million cases within each of its borders. Dr. Stanley from the CDC has a vaccine; however, she only has a limited number of vials She has therefore designated various "survivor communities" based on areas that have shown no infiltration of the virus or zombie virus carriers. From these survivor communities, the Survival Selection Committee will select the most worthy candidates for the vaccine. These candidates will also join Dr. Stanley in her isolation compound until this outbreak concludes and the world can begin anew. In keeping with our democratic governmental process, the Survival Selection Committee will select the 2 individuals from each of the survival communities that are most suited for survival by majority election. If you are receiving this letter, it is because your local community in North Carolina has been identified as a survivor community that has not been affected by the zombie contagion. As such, you are eligible to apply to be one of the vaccine candidates. Please prepare a brief video in which you present qualifications that make you a valuable survivor. After hearing your argument, the community will debate its merits and vote on whether you should be one of the 2 individuals permitted to receive the vaccine and live in the survival compound and help to reestablish civilization in whatever form it takes after the elimination or natural conclusion of the zombie virus outbreak. Good Luck and Science Preserve Us All, President ashley Stanley President Ashley Stanley, 47th President of the United States As you prepare your video presentation, consider and include the following: 1 You will submit a 1-3 minute video submission as well as a written script of your speech. 2. Your name and your given traits as shown in your assigned character profile 3. You can add two other character traits/skills to your character profile (These must be approved and within the realm of reality for your character.) 4. What are your strengths? What can you offer the new society? 5. What are your weaknesses? How will you overcome those deficits? 6. What makes a good "survivor"? 7. Three rhetorical appeals must be used (label and explain each as a footnote of your written speech). B. Counterclaim and rebuttal for your selection as the designated vaccine recipient must be included (label and explain as a footnote on your written speech). 9. Be sure to avoid any logical fallacies that are too obvious and could weaken your argument. 10. You are allowed to include visual supports as part of the video, but you as the speaker must be visible. 11. Be mindful of keeping your video content and character information confidential for other vaccine applicants You do not want any of your competitors to use your information against you or be able to make themselves sound more appealing than you
