Jerome,
My response to your earlier post was a bit negative (although I feel it was the truth) but I admire your determination. I was in the exact same position as yourself a few months ago.
You don't need a huge list of doctrine issues. I feel you would be better served with only few key points. Give her a point and let her think about it... keep in mind her instinct will be to run to the elders and ask them how she should think about it. I was successful in making a couple of points with my girlfriend and so one day I decided I'd dump a pile of them on her and that ended it for me. For some reason she could try to reason through one or two points I'd made but once a gave her a huge list she thought I was out to get the Watchtower and wouldn't listen any more.
I would also advise you to stay with events that happened as recently as possible. If you go with the old stuff that everyone seems to recomend you'll simply run into the "new light" bs and you may once again lose her attention. Once you have her attention then hit her with the old stuff. Avoid overwhelming her.
I'm sure you know this but only use their books to make your points. Once again the more recent the publication the better.

and http://www.fortunecity.co.uk/jodrellbank/hyperdrive/479/The first site is an excellent source for quotes and the second site tells the story of a guy who accomplished what you're trying to do. It took him 4 years.
Hope this helps,
