current political events Options

For language arts, I'm supposed to be writing a political statement paper, which essentially consists of my fact based opinion on anything political. I thought at first it'd be pretty easy because I'm not entirely ignorant, but I'm actually having a really hard time deciding what to write about. I was thinking about writing on the way they have all these race specific clubs at school, but I can't think of a way to tie it into anything going on now. I don't really feel like doing abortion or something like that, and I need to stay as far away from gay marriage as possible because of my teacher. Has anyone got any ideas?
