Is Charlie Baird the Right One?

All around the world people live in crime and poverty. It is a concern that needs to be fixed in almost every area, even here in Texas. Blogger Rachel Farris describes this problem in her post: An Endorsement: On Problem Solving and Criminal Justice. She gives numerous scenarios of situations that everyone has seen in their life. This really helps connect the readers to her argument. In the last paragraph it is clear that she is trying to reach out to those who live in the Travis County. She seems credible for the situations that she lists because she claims it happens around where she lives. Since she is reaching to the people around her, they can easily relate to the situations that she claims to have seen. However when she jumps into saying that she supports Charlie Baird for the Travis County District Attorney's race and says that he is someone who can fix these problems. I think that she could have said that about anyone, it didn't really make me want to support him in the race at all. She needs to give evidence that he will fix the problems in our area. Maybe give examples of what he has already done and his own personal life showing how he is the right person.
Although Blogger Rachel Farris grabbed her intended audience's attention, her argument didn't seem to be strong enough to convince me that her choice to support Charlie Baird is the right thing to do to help make the community a better and safer place for everyone.
