Will Metcalf Part 2 1B
Civility is the key in getting people to believe you. Staying calm during an argument and not letting your emotions get in the way of the problem at hand is an important trait, as people respond better to a civil opponent than an uncivilized one. For example, when running for president, you must act civil when debating against your opponent, or you will lose voters due to your arrongance and unkindness. A calm, civilized opponent will always make a more believable argument than one who is not.

I agree partially to your argument, but I believe that to win a debate, one must speak with passion, and the most talented public speakers often have raised emotions. Passion illustrates a sense of pride and confidence.
