Read this paragraph from the speech. but neither can two great and powerful groups of nations take comfort from our present course -- both sides overburdened by the cost of modern weapons, both rightly alarmed by the steady spread of the deadly atom, yet both racing to alter that uncertain balance of terror that stays the hand of mankind's final war. which response best describes kennedy’s argument in the paragraph? world domination is achievable if the united states and the soviet union agree to share military technologies. the benefit to the united stated from advances in military technologies outweighs the risk of provoking conflict with other nations. the cost of military growth is worth the investment to prepare the united states for potential conflict with other nations. world destruction is inevitable if the united states and the soviet union continue to compete for military superiority.

The correct answer is D) “world desctruction is inevitable if the United States and the Soviet Union continue to compete fot military superiority.

The response that best describes Kennedy’s argument in the paragraph is “world desctruction is inevitable if the United States and the Soviet Union continue to compete fot military superiority.”

This is part of the speech John F. Kennedy made in his Inaugural Address. In his argument, he states that the United States and the Soviet Union must work together to avoid nuclear work. With the use of his well though words, Kennedy is trying to forecast the worst scenario for the people to see. He says “neither two of this powerful nations can take comfort from its present course; both sides overburn by the cost of modern weapons, both rightly alarmed by the spread of the modern atom, yet both racing to alter that uncertain balance of terror that stays the hand of mankind’s final word.

Kennedy was trying to create consciousness about the consequences of another war if the race of arms continued the way it was at that moment.    

b. cronkite, a trusted television personality, declared that the war was unwinnable and told the american people that the government had better find a way out

even though it went against everything the news anchors typically stood for, cronkite voiced an opinion and took a stance, telling the us that there was no way they were going to win, the war was going to end in a stalemate. 

i think the correct answer is b. phrase
