Topic for Paper
This paper was probably the hardest thing I've ever had to think about in regards t o picking a topic. I ran out of ideas. So, I decided to do a law because I saw someone was doing No Child Left Behind. I started thinking what is an even more unpopular law: the Patriot Act. So what I'm doing is going against everything I believe about it and write in terms that we need to renew the bill. It is probably one of the most unpopular bills out there and there is only a small number that believe it is good for the country. So I'm going to take a try to see the side of support.w

I have never really heard much about the patriot act. I feel that this will be a very good topic because it is not very common. I feel that depending on who you think your audience is going to be that you might want to inform them of what exactly the patriot act is. I know that it is not a law that is very common to people. It would be interesting to see your solutions on this act. I feel that it is a good idea to see how you can revise the act in order to make it work better.
I'm glad you took the other side from your beliefs. I hope that this was a very convincing paper, since that is probably very difficult to do in your position. Done successfully, it can be a very powerful basis to either change your mind or solidify your beliefs. Did you let people who agreed with the Patriot Act read it? More importantly, did they offer you other ideas that may have led to more insight?
