I am employed by a software house that specializes in video processing. That is supposedly "high tech". The youngsters here didn't know who Werner Von Braun was or what he did. There are plenty of supposedly educated folks who don't believe we landed on the moon.

Our Nation is indeed going down the tubes because the young people are ignorant.

I don’t think it’s their fault.
I think the left has purposefully dumbed them down to fit their agenda.

“There are plenty of supposedly educated folks who don't believe we landed on the moon.”

My 8th grade daughter gave a presentation for “History Day” on the Holocaust. It was an evening open-house with all the kids giving their reports, etc. Some were very good, but it was interesting to see the vast majority of them had to do with women voting, MLK, several on women's styles in the 20’s, and other liberal stuff.

After my daughter gave her presentation on the Holocaust some boys asked a bunch of questions (the other presenters got none).

“I find it hard to believe some guy could just kill 6 million people - that's a lot of people.”

“Yeah - and how did they allow that to happen?”

“Where did you find out about this anyway?”

I asked my daughters why those boys were just razzing on her and not the other kids. She looked at me puzzled. “How come those boys were teasing you with their questions?”

They weren't teasing dad.

Huh? You mean they hadn't heard of the Holocaust?

No - probably not.

Didn't you learn about this in school?

No - I read a book about it on my own awhile ago, and then found some others about it for the project.

And while the others were doing reports on MLK, my other daughter gave the other side of the story and did hers on Malcolm X.

Just part of the DNC plan to dumb down America, and they are making tremendous progress.
