Examine the following passages to determine whether they contain arguments. For those passages that do contain arguments, rewrite them in standardized form, number- ing premises and conclusion(s). Note any subarguments and indicate the main argu- ment and the main conclusion. Note: some of the following passages do not contain arguments and therefore do not contain premises or conclusions. If you think that a passage does not contain an argu- ment, explain briefly why it does not. Part i: everyone knows what the united states will be up to this year: electing a new president.
