Watch for errors in logic such as hasty generalizations, or conclusions drawn from too little evidence oEx: Our student body president is doing a terrible job
and he is a guy. Boys should not be allowed to run for student council.

Transfer
-Feelings (good or bad)are transferred to something else.
Transfer tries to make you view something in the same way as they view something else.
In the Kerry vs. Bush campaign, an internet email circulated showing similar physical characteristics between John Kerry and a Frankenstein monster.
Another example: “Take pride in being an American. Vote for John Doe!”

There are pearls in each of us, if only we knew how to cultivate them with ardor and persistence.(Sydney J. Harris, "What True Education Should Do," 1964)
