What does subordination have to do with outlining your speech?

- It is the idea that you should always have 3 details to support every concept.
- It is the idea that some concepts are "supporting ideas" rather than main body points.
- It is the idea that your speech is derived from other people's ideas and is therefore considered "subordinate."
- It is the idea that you should always start with your strongest point and all other ideas should be underneath this first body point.
