claim

The claim of a speech is the main idea or position the speaker is taking in the speech. The phrase "umbrella statement" is referring to the main idea because the main idea covers everything in the speech. Reasons support the claim and evidence proves the reasons. Rhetoric is the use of figurative language and other literary devices in the speech.
