You know they screen these type of segments and show a skewed proportion of answers that support whatever their narrative is, right?

I’m not saying Americans on the whole are adequately educated or knowledgeable, but consider how many people they had to ask to get the dumb responses in that video. They also clearly targeted the people least likely to know, as a bunch of those people are clearly teenagers.

Seems fitting, no?

I don't think the president* even knows who the president is.

By 9th grade I had taken civics and several history classes and could answer every one of those questions, being a teenager it should be very fresh in their minds, or their schools suck.

I saw Waters from Fox do one of these and an old fella knew all the answers even throwing in FDR was president during WW2 until the last few months when he died and Truman took office. Fella was "rolling" his Rs I knew he was from Barbados. Sure enough Waters said he was a naturalized citizen, at least legal immigrants know our history.

You use the term "Americans" loosely.

An epic indictment of the American education system. How in hell did those people ever advance in an actual educational setting?

This is the result of the American public school system. Our teachers can’t even get the basics of history down, so they want to sacrifice more class time to CRT?
