Candy is delicious my favorite kind is sour punch straws tell me why this isn’t a run-on sentence

This actually is a run-on sentence, because there are two independent clauses, which are not connected correctly. The correct sentence could be:

"Candy is delicious; my favorite kind is sour punch straws,"     or:

"Candy is delicious. My favorite kind is sour punch straws."

I hope this helps! :)

what is the purpose of the description in this passage from travels with charley?

to explain how he develops friendships with people

to show his fear of the man

to show that people in the bad lands are dangerous

to show the similarity between the man and the place

the rhetorical devices that he used in "common sense" are syntax for his sentence structure and pathos for his emotion against the british unfairly treating the "americans" and logos of what documents that what happened to the pilgrims when they had the mayflower compact and how that the british were wanting to have one religion but the compact said for any religion to be accepted.
