When you have determined who will be responsible for each portion of your team's debate, it is up to you to prepare yourself for the challenge that lies ahead. Only one team
will win this debate. The winning team will:
-have a solid background regarding all material
-have plenty of evidence to back up claims
-use teamwork to teach all in group the important concepts behind specific positions
-be creative/psyche out opponents
-outclass opponents/never give an answer of "uh...."

Good luck!
