Suggests that he should? Or suggests that...
I'm writing a paper and have a quick grammar question.
The sentence as it is now says, "...Bob suggests that Kim should write a paper..."
Though, I'm starting to think it should read, "...Bob suggests that Kim write a paper..."
Which one of these (if either) is correct?

Both are correct, that's for sure. Maybe there is a slight difference in meaning?
I am not a teacher and I am not a native speaker.

Hi,
Both are correct forms. "should" is used mostly in British English.
Ex: "They demanded that we (should) sign the contract."

Thanks to both of you. I've decided to use the 2nd choice I mentioned.
