Rogerian Rhetoric

After reading about the Rogerian Rhetoric way of argument, it gave me another view on arguing that I haven’t had before. I think that this way, finding common ground, is by far more productive than just battling it out with another person. I think the hardest part about this paper, for me, is going to be finding a topic. When I do find a topic, the next trouble will be finding common ground between the two sides. Writing the paper should be easy enough once those two things coincide. One of the questions I have about this is how much of the paper will be research? It seemed that the example essay was mostly own experiences and didn’t have much for research. In the booklet it says we are working together to arrive at an agreed-on truth. Does this mean that we don’t have to come up with a clear way to solve the problem, just pretty much state the agreed upon truth?
