HOW DID THE EDUCATED BECOME SO IGNORANT?
At present, the United States is a house divided against itself. It is a nation falling into disarray as two groups of people--those who know our nation's history and those who don't--stare blankly into each other's eyes with no commonality of which to speak.
And these blank stares can be between the educated just as easily as they can be between the uneducated. In fact, when it comes to U.S. history, one couldn't be blamed for asking how the educated in this country became so ignorant.
This ignorance was birthed when radicals like Saul Alinsky, William Ayers, and their comrades struck out against our education system in the late 1960s and early 70s. As a result, it's now commonplace for a college freshman to know many ways to prove that all cultures are equal, but very few examples of what Thomas Jefferson or John Adams contributed to the founding of our nation.

This is pretty close to what I've been sayin' here for the last couple of years. This fella just says it better. The entire article is at the link above and well worth the read. Enjoy.

Re: This explains it
sorry, Pud, but the side you represent is precisely the side that doesn't understand, or hasn't learned, US history. It has nothing to do with Sol Alinsky, or any such stupidity.
