Position vs. Change

Arguing for a position and aruging a change is a lot alike, but also are a lot different. When you argue a position, your goal is to try and convince the reader your point of view. When you argue a change, you first of all have to convince the reader of your point of view,you then have to convince them to go ahead and actually go out and act somehow upon it. Jefferson argues a change because he first of all, lists why he he believes the king treats people. Then he states ways you can go and overthrow him from his throne. Clark argues a position because she just gives real life examples on how bad life is without Health Insurance. She doesn't go on and list things you can do which will change the quality of life without health insurance. As you can see they are kinda alike because they use their own experiences, but one goes on even more which make them different.
