 note = {In many university reading and discussion classes, students are taught to critically examine logical arguments and the use of evidence in persuasive texts. Although these skills are important in reading and writing, many persuasive texts, including common forms of political discourse, rely on discursive processes that routinely violate the standards of logic and scientific discourse. To analyze such texts, students should develop skills in critical discourse analysis (CDA). This article examines two important processes in CDA: representation and legitimization. Examples from the campaign against bilingual education in the United States demonstrate how analysis of representation and legitimization offers students useful tools for analyzing persuasive texts and for understanding the structure and impact of political discourse.},
