Hi All. A goodoutreach opportunity has just popped up for this Saturday May 7 at CCSF. Please let me know if you can help out. Thanks!Aubrey
I love speaking to students, and would definitely appreciate some time to address the group; as a winner of the San Francisco high school students' YouthVote both times I ran for school board, I have a good angle! 
It also seems worth discussing what we could do as far as bringing in some multimedia elements beyond just speaking. An hour is WAY longer than we usually get for these type things, and while we probably wouldn't run out of material, students might get bored.
Showing some short video clips is certainly one possibility, if we can get a – the video version of Leonard Reed's "I Pencil" essay and the ISIL "Introduction to the Philosophy of Liberty" are a couple good ones that come to mind.
Here's another idea I just had which may not have been tried before: Create a large-scale (say 10' by 10') Nolan Chart to display on stage (if we're invited to bring 40 people, I'm assuming this will be in a large auditorium or something), and have the students take the quiz en masse by raising their hands in response to each question ("How about whether or not you choose to wear a seatbelt? If you think government should decide, raise your hand... If you think you should decide, raise your hand... If you're not sure, raise your hand"). As usual when administering the quiz we'd give 10 points for each hand raised for "me", 5 points for each hand raised for "maybe" and 0 points for each hand raised for "government". After each question we'd tally up the points for that question and then divide that number by the number of students responding, to get an aggregate score, rounding it to the nearest point.
To take a simple example, say there's 100 students present; 40 think they should decide whether or not to wear a seatbelt, 40 think government should decide, and 20 aren't sure. That would work out to 400 points for the yeses, 0 points for the nos, and 100 points for the maybes, for a total of 500 points. Divide this by 100, and you'd get an aggregate score of 5 points for that question. Of course it usually wouldn't work out so neatly, but with a pocket calculator on hand it would be easy to calculate. The results would also allow for a bit more nuance than when a single person takes the quiz; they might for instance get an average of 8 points on one question, 3 on another, etc., instead of always either 10, 5, or 0.
There could be some sort of visible sticker or token representing the students which we would move upward on the chart as they answered each question, so that they could view their collective progress as the quiz progressed, and in the end get to see the aggregate of their views. I suspect the students would tend to find this experience engaging and memorable. Before taking tallies for each question, we could allow them to ask questions about the questions, which could also prove educational and help them pay more attention to the answers than they might if they were not about to vote on something. We could even call the exercise "The World's Largest Political Quiz".
