According to the most recent Annenberg Constitution Day Civics Survey conducted last September, Americans have a pretty appalling grasp of their nation's governing structure. Only 32% of those surveyed were able to name all three branches of the federal government (which actually represented a 6% increase from the previous year). But an even higher portion of those surveyed, 33%, could not even name a single branch of the federal government. And according to the 2017 iteration of the same survey, 37% of those surveyed could not name a single right secured by the First Amendment!

This is deliberate. Absolutely deliberate. A people that don't understand their past can be unmoored from their present.
ReplyDeleteIndeed.
DeleteIt will not benefit the liberal public school establishment to teach the Constitution contents. Therefore it will not be taught. Provide school vouchers for parents to send their kids to ANY school of their choice...that will end the public monopoly of propaganda in education.
ReplyDeleteAgreed and although I used home school, 50% of my home taxes went to public schools and welfare.
