Answer

The answer is D. "Ladies and Gentlemen, it was the way that Mary McLeod Bethune believed, it has been the way that this great organization has believed, it is what we, as Americans, believe:" (paragraph 21)

Explanation
Option A: "If you can be excellent at something, if you love something. go and do it." (paragraph 19)

This statement encourages pursuing one's passion and excellence, which is a motivational statement rather than a logical fallacy. It does not oversimplify a complex issue but rather provides a straightforward piece of advice.

Option B: "Now, there's another message that we need to deliver to our kids. It's that educational excellence is key..." (paragraph 9)

This statement emphasizes the importance of education, which is a widely accepted notion. It does not oversimplify a complex issue but highlights a critical factor for success.

Option C: "I want to thank you for the honor of being with you, of now - carrying an award that carries the name of one of the great pioneers of our people, and of our country." (paragraph 22)

This is an expression of gratitude and respect, not a logical argument. It does not involve any simplification of complex issues.

Option D: "Ladies and Gentlemen, it was the way that Mary McLeod Bethune believed, it has been the way that this great organization has believed, it is what we, as Americans, believe:" (paragraph 21)

This statement suggests that a single belief system is universally shared by all Americans, which oversimplifies the diversity of beliefs and values in the country. It presents a complex issue of national identity and belief as a monolithic concept, which is a logical fallacy.
