My candidate is Snowball. He is going against Napoleon. Hands down, Snowball is the better candidate based on his attributes. He is more vivacious. People side with Napoleon for the simple fact that he is more fierce-looking.
My first reason for Snowball being the better leader is the fact that he is good at speaking. You can find proof of this in chapter 2. It reads "Snowball was quicker in speech (than Napoleon)". Another example could be in the same chapter when it says ""No," said Snowball firmly." He says it firm, which shows he can be tough and attentive. Next, I believe Snowball would be better because he is more original. I believe this because it says in the book "he is more inventive" comparing him to Napoleon. Him being more original can be backed up by the action he made of "throwing on to the fire the ribbons with which the horses' manes and tails had usually been decorated on market days." This was a powerful move he made, and it had not been done before for them. Finally, Snowball is more sophisticated and smart. This is because in one of his speeches, he says "A bird's wing, comrades, is an organ of propulsion and not manipulation. It should therefore be regarded as a leg. The distinguishing mark of man is the hand, the instrument with which he does all his mischief." This gives a great example of him being a leader. Another example of his smartness is when it says "Snowball, who had studied an old book of Julius Caesar's campaigns which he had found in the farmhouse, was in charge of the defensive operations." Obviously, this shows he has studied and would be a great leader. In conclusion, Snowball is smart, well spoken, and more original. Comments are closed.
