What do you feel strongly about, thats what the best persuasive speechs are about, if you care abotu somethign it won't be hard for you to try to persuade sombody for 5-8 minutes, do a little research to have some facts behind what you say, and you should be fine.\n\nYou may even try to check out some hot political topics - immigration is huge right now, the iraq war, and persuade for what you feel.  Death penalty has been done a million times, but thats always an idea

Is surrogate parenting a good idea?\n2. Is there a truly such a thing as Christian "Rock"\n3.  Illegal immigration, do we send them back?\n4. Why are we in Iraq?\n5.  Child abuse or Biblical "Spare the Rod"\n6.  Is Cosmetic Surgery a Sin?\n7. Overseas Adoptions, should we stay in America for our  Babies?\n8.  Interracial Dating, who does it benefit?\n9. Cloning, How many more of YOU can we stand?\nJust ideas. Hope they help!

in order to make a nice speech of course - first, you should pick up a very interesting topic to talk about.. topic tht would call on your audiences' attention.\n\npractice your script and make sure you make good pronunciation of words so that your listeners would understand you.

Use a topic that you believe in for your persuasive speech and back it up. Try a current event topic. How about, "Why black Americans should  stop using the n-word." Use the Michael Richardson or "Kramer" ranting as your basis. Good luck.

Rhetorically speaking?

First: Choose an issue that you are intersted in and/or that affects your audience.  Your audience will know if you are detatched from your subject.  \n\nThen: Choose one aspect of that issue.  For example if you decide to do something about social security and you are a young student, you might want to focus on the effects of the baby boom generation on the likelyhood that you will be able to collect social security when you retire.  This may sound complicated, but it will help you in two ways: \n\n1.  It will help you lower the amount of informationyou have to go through.\n\n2.  It will allow you to thouroughly cover your topic in a small amount of time (I am assuming that you are a student doing this for a class and don't have a lot of time)

If you have pets and like pets, you should do it on why people should adopt or buy a pet. You could also do it on the gym that you go to and why excercise is good for people. Or on good restaurants to go to in your area and why. There are so many possabilities that you could do it on. Just look at something that interests you and do it on that. Hope this helps, and best of luck with your speech!!! :0)
