I wish the “non-white” category were broken down into specifics.
Betcha the hispanic crew thinks we broke away from Mexico.
Notice also that ignorance is more pronounced in the southern states.
As a southerner, I can post that observation w/o brickbats being thrown at me, OK??
As a southerner whose children received excellent public school educations (no teachers’ unions in my state), I can also observe that ignorance can’t truly be blamed on the educational system, which, try as it might, has a monumental job overcoming generational ignorance and complacency. Ignorant parents breed ignorant children.
There are a lot of people in this country — and most aren’t descended from the founding colonists — who just don’t care.
Flame me, but I’m right. And I’m not a racist, just a realist.
Yep, alot of it boils down to simply not caring.

“From where do the latter think the U.S. achieved its independence?” Among the countries mentioned are France, China, Japan, Mexico, and Spain”
