This article is useful because it gives the reader different backgrounds about how the war on poverty started. It also gives different outlooks from presidents like Obama to economists. It’s broad perspective helps the article not to come off as biased. The article is authoritative because it uses examples from Lyndon B. Johnson and qualified specialists. This makes his article more credible and have a greater authority. At the end, the article can be a bit biased however because it leans towards a more optimistic approach and theme, he gives a more ideological insight than putting the blame directly on someone. It communicates by using academic language and makes it relatable to the reader. I also like this article because it gives a more rounded approach when responding the war on poverty topic since it is something that involves many different factors. The writing can compare to past experiences and it can enlarge the view the readers have on the war on poverty.
