Carol is writing a rhetorical analysis about Shirley Chisholm’s presidential announcement speech and how it appealed to people’s desire for innovative ideas in governing. She wants to add evidence to support her analysis.

Choice C most directly supports the idea that Chisholm appealed to people’s desire for innovative ideas in governing: she says Americans are demanding “a new sensibility” and “a new philosophy of government.” Those phrases explicitly call for fresh approaches. Choice A focuses on her lack of endorsements, while B and D address leadership stature and the administration’s priorities rather than a demand for new governing ideas.
