At least the same percentage has a negative view of the United States, since they have been taught to condemn their own country since birth.

What many of these young people believe is that the greatest sin is to be judgmental. And the second greatest sin is to have an affection or preference for one’s own country.

40% in survey of young people showed they could not correctly place in sequence which came first, World War II or the Civil War.

And they can vote.

In the late 1960s, 22 years after the end of WWII, many 18 to 29 year olds had positive views of Joseph Stalin, Nikita Khrushchev, Mao Zedong and Hồ Chí Minh. I chalk it up to a combination of youthful ignorance and stupidity.

Hopefully, most will either grow out of it of find some way to Darwin themselves out of the gene pool.

They either don’t know who Obama bin Laden was, or they are Muslims of whom the US is developing a huge population.
