What are your interests? Nothing will help the persuasive end of it more than something you are truly interested in.

How about how Jersey should be split up and the south given to PA, the north to NY so we can add Puerto Rico as the new 50th state?

Seriously, you have to give us a little more than that, dude.

Who ever said that PA wants southern Jersey? I've heard of plans to cut all the bridges loose and push it out to sea. Then you'd have oceanfront property within a half hour of the Poconos.

As long as we're cutting states loose, you could discuss Bill Hicks' idea to get a Boy Scout troop with chisels working on the CA faultline...

hey, talk to your class about talking to old people

Reasons: They have experience, experience is worth more than what money can buy. They have seen things and one things you can't imagine ( ie: wars, technological advances, man on the moon, TV becomes a reality, computers)
they have stories about the farms and such how hard things were for them . Talk to your old relatives, you'll be surprised what you learn. Most of all, you can learn about family history and traditions from them. If you can, talk to them while you still can, and count your blessings.

Use that for whatever, make it your speech, I don't care, Advice from old people is something to seriously consider though. Peace out man.
