I bet that if you asked “When is the 4th of July?”, a percentage of Americans would get it wrong.

Thus, a people will not defend that which they do not comprehend or believe.

Nothing like Government Education, no other group could dumb down a population faster. And now you know why the political class and friends of government prefer pop-culture training; instead of a formal education focusing on reading, writing, math, science and clarity of thought. The less knowledge an individual/society has the less threat they are to a government.

26% of people HERE did not/could not answer that question correctly!

If you ask this question twenty years from now, the answer would be Kenya.

AND,,,,,,,,,they reproduce.
Unfortunately, IMHO, these people are not Americans, this is simply where they live. They have nothing invested here.
Happy Fourth of July!
SEMPER FI to all Marines,
Thank you to all serving members of the US Armed Forces.
Thank you to all veterans.

What country did the U.S. declare independence from? Over a quarter of Americans don't know the answer to that question,...
I thought there were more democrats than that.

Exactly, and that’s why we have government schools and revisionist history.
