In his 2011 state of the union address, president barack obama said:

"our infrastructure used to be the best, but our lead has slipped. south korean homes now have greater internet access than we do. countries in europe and russia invest more in their roads and railways than we do. china is building faster trains and newer airports. meanwhile, when our own engineers graded our nation’s infrastructure, they gave us a "d."

we have to do better. america is the nation that built the transcontinental railroad, brought electricity to rural communities, constructed the interstate highway system. the jobs created by these projects didn’t just come from laying down track or pavement. they came from businesses that opened near a town’s new train station or the new off-ramp."

is this excerpt from president obama’s speech an example of argument or persuasion? provide at least two reasons to support your answer. answer in complete sentences.
