I got a paper to do in college! It's a definitive paper using the Toulmin Method. It goes like this.

Claim: X is a Y. (For this paper, X is a hero, or X is a role model. X is a person. Y is a hero or role model or not a hero or not a role model.)
Grounds: X is a Y because reason A and reason B.
Warrant: Anyone who does A and B is a Y.
Backing: Anyone who does A is a Y because of an elaborate well typed explanation. Also, anyone who does B is a Y because of an elaborate and well typed explanation. This is the hardest part in the definitive paper.
Rebuttal: While X is a Y, there are things that make him opposite of the Y. There are two things at least that makes X not a Y to some people.
Qualifier: A sentence that understands the Rebuttal and re-iterates the claim in an understanding way.

X is the person. Y means hero or role model. A is one reason why he's a hero or role model and B is another reason.


Since I don't want to cheat, I am just trying to brainstorm ideas. It has to be someone who can be argued about. Argue is taken generally. No one's gonna fight about it. But they could ARGUE the points that X is a Y because A and B. It can be anyone, from family, to fictional characters. Someone even made a Toulmin Method paper of his dog once.

I am wondering, who can I talk about? One person I can think of is some rom hacker.

Idea: X is Y as they are both human.
