Anthony’s speech is very effective because she appeals to the credibility of the United States Constitution and appeals to the logic that every United States citizen is guaranteed their rights. Notably, Anthony in the beginning of her speech explains that she exercised her rights as a citizen of the United States after illegally voting that are “guaranteed to me and all United States citizens by the National Constitution” and then expresses that these rights cannot be taken away by any State. Accordingly, Anthony highlights how her right to vote is given to her and every other United States citizen by the National Constitution. Understandably, this reveals how Anthony appeals to the Constitution by pointing out how the Constitution grants every citizen unalienable rights. Similarly, Anthony goes on to list “The Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, the constitutions of the several states and the organic laws of the territories” to further say that all these things are there to protect the people and allow them to exercise their God-given rights. Hence, Anthony conveys the idea that every formal document put in place by the government is there to protect the rights citizens were born
