         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Definition</strong>: Insisting that a claim is true simply because a valid authority or expert on the issue said it was true, without any other supporting evidence offered.<br><br><strong>Connection</strong>: The cereal brand Honeycombs had Andre the Giant appear in one of their commercials during the 1980's.

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Definition:</strong> An argument that is far too complicated for an opponent to reasonably address all the particulars, or the person making the argument is so well-reputed that one takes his claims as the truth.<br><br><strong>Connection:</strong> Donald Trump is an example of Proof of Verbosity because Donald Trump has a wide variety of words that he has used in past interviews that confuse people and distract them from the point at hand.

The article below relates to how people are able to see patterns in everyday sequences for unknown reasons.

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Define Problem</strong>: The problem with post #4 is that many children that watch that specific commercial, can be deceived into thinking eating Honeycombs can help them grow to the size of Andre the Giant. <br><br><strong>Gather Evidence</strong>: Interviews gathered years later, had adults saying they believed that Honeycombs would help them grow when they were younger. <br><br><strong>Evaluate Evidence:</strong> The evidence used in this case is very biased as many people who had partaken in the interview years later didn't take it very seriously.<br><br><strong>Recognize biases, assumptions</strong>: I recognize that with Andre the Giant in the Commercial, sales will increase due to the fact Andre the Giant was an international wrestling star when wrestling was at its peak in the 1980's. <br><br> <strong>Synthesize Evidence</strong>: Even though having Andre the Giant will boost the sales of Honeycombs, they could have had an average person be the main aspect of the commercial who could have talked about the health benefits for the average person.<br><br>Alternatives: In today's day and age I think it would be beneficial to include the health benefits for the average person and talk about how it can benefit the normal population. <br><br></div>]]></description>
