If you want to get people's attention and/or probably make some of them mad, you should do a speech on the "wedge" issues (as Lou Dobbs calls them) between Republicans and Democrats, environmental issues, lowering the drinking age, abortion, foreign policy, drugs legal/illegal. Another thing is to find an issue that is at least semi-interesting within your local/state community, like something in the news perhaps, or an on going problem, or why to outlaw something, or make something into a law.

Politics!  Most teachers have an opinion one way or another.\n\nThe war in Iraq...\n\nReligion...\n\nSports...\n\nCollege...(where they went and/or your future plans)\n\n\nGood luck!

absolutely nothing. people like to order other people around based on their beliefs. abortion and gay marriage are things that really don't effect us on a day-to-day basis, but they are highly controversial opinionated topics that are the base of the conservative platform.

The single biggest issue facing the US at the moment is the ability of Tel Aviv to control US foreign policy in the Middle East. AIPAC is immasculating US congressmen and silencing detractors with accusations of anti-semitism.\nAmerica is prosecuting a conflict at the behest of Israel... This is making a mockery of the most powerful democracy in the world and showing Americas Achilles Heel to all of her enemies.\n\nI think this ranks as the most important issue facing that country at the moment.

It really depends on you. The best topic would be any topic that you are really interested in... something that you know about, and something that you think is important and that would be relevant for your audience.

It is because they are easy polarizing topics.  Politicians look for low hanging fruit so they won't have to address real topics - like the budget or social security.

hmm lets see\n\norgan donation is a hot topic  in the Orthodox movement. \n\nanything doing with ethical issues with the Israeli military conduct in war.\n\ntheir is a huge fight brewing in the Conservative movement over Homosexual issues.\n\nthose are the ones off the top of my head I recommend 1 or 3

Politics is simply the exchange of ideas for the betterment of the community.  Kinda like a football game of ideas.  Some teams are really good for some folks, some teams really stink for some folks.  Sometimes there are ties.\n\nThe problem is that the political games never ends and the two sides shakes hands and get a pizza together!

what kind of help do u actually need..??? i mean is it your subject or wat???? the question is vague in the sense that politics is such a vast subject or topic that could not be covered in just one answer... so stay particular about politics and mention the specific thing which is atually intriguing you.

One of the most widely debated topics in this country and you can't think of anything to debate about?\n\nIf you're pro choice, why?  That's what the paper is about.  What do you say to others that oppose your point of view?  Is your view point fixed?  Could you be swayed to another perspective?\n\nWhat objections to your point of view are most troubling for you?  \n\nIf all else fails...triple space.

any topic of debate is going to be controversial, i would try gay marriage, capital punishment, abortion, legalization of marijuana (i had an english class that someone won for it once), school uniforms, prayer in schools, evolution, just to name a few. a great series is taking sides (i think) it has the viewpoints and different ideas for that sort of debate.
