Two-thirds of
Americans cannot name a single Supreme Court justice… about one-third can name
the three branches of government. Fewer than one-fifth of high school seniors
can explain how citizen participation benefits democracy. Less than one-third of eighth-graders can
identify the historical purpose of the Declaration of Independence, and it's
right there in the name," [former Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, 05SEP13]
HERE is the real problem in our nation… ya’
think?
I know we had beaten this subject to death, but it is truly the downfall
of our nation… the “low information” voter.
We learn that our education system is going to have a federally mandated core
curriculum. Knowing our failing Department of Education (the
other DoE is failing too), civics will either NOT be in the core curriculum or
it will be corrupted by the left wing revisionists who are more interested in
Sally Hemmings than the Declaration of Independence.
