Oh God, don't EVER talk about politics to strangers if you're trying to befriend them. What a horrible idea. Some other users have mentioned a few good ideas. Try not to have an end goal in mind when speaking to another person. Do it naturally and see what happens. Talk about things you might have in common, like recent movies or popular TV shows. Slip in funny quips about your life. Oh, and definitely don't ask "What's your major?" How tacky.
