The two main subjects that Americans agree not to discuss much in polite conversation are 1: politics and 2: religion. That is because they are areas where people have deep-rooted beliefs that are not easily changed, and there is a great potential for misunderstanding or hurt feelings, besides the fact that outside of church or a political rally, many people view them as unrelated to the whatever task you have on your plate at the time.
Besides this, avoid criticizing the US, US culture, Americans in general or US policy, even if they have recently invaded your country. Americans for the most part deeply love their country and may be offended and confused by comments that do not reflect a similar love and respect, and may take the comments personally.
