Ok, so I'm highly biased, but I would do NCLB - there's plenty of information out there on it and it's something that is really affecting our education system right now.
But I'm an ed major and get angry at things like that, haha :) Maybe other people don't hate it as much as I do.
Have fun with whatever you choose...those all sound like very pertinent issues.
