1.) I've never really thought about writers negotiating with their audience. Actually reviewing texts I've read/heard though, I can think of a few. Talking to someone through your writing is different than negotiating with them because when your just talking to them through your writing, your showing more of a story. When your negotiating with people through writing then you're showing more of your thoughts/opinions and being bias/ very one-sided. If i were negotiating with people through my writing I would add persuasion, but to a point where they would end up agreeing and not realize it, possibly by including some counter argument/or adding valid points from the opposing side.
4.) Constraints are practically anything that is not the rhetor and the audience, that causes the audience to take a point of view in the text. Constraints can be thought of as aids instead of restrictions because they also allow the rhetor to create a view that the audience could have possibly never thought of, when would then get the audience to start thinking completely different.
7.) A discourse is needed to possibly compare two things. What that discourse could be trying to accomplish is for the audience to declare a side or for the audience to fully understand the differences of the sides of whatever the discourse is.
