Pick one of the possible issues below and write a research based paper that persuades readers on some
aspect of that particular issue. Most of the issues listed below are typical “For or Against” issues, yet I don’t want to box you in too much (i.e., perhaps if you choose Globalization you will focus your speech not so much on the Globalization issue but instead on whether or not NAFTA should be eliminated – an important aspect of the overall Globalization debate). On the other hand, however, feel free to design your Persuasive paper around either being “For or Against” one of these hot button issues (indeed, that’s why I selected these particular issues).
