These clips don’t mean a thing unless the full picture is presented. For all we know, the interviewer asked 100 people, and got only a few stupid answers. Then only the few stupid answers were aired.

I don’t doubt that many Americans are weak in their knowledge of US history. But these clips are edited more for shock value than anything else.

These are mostly Obama’s people. The only one who answered it correctly was a middle-aged white guy. Not surprised.

Wrongo. Every adult citizen in this country is required to know. The muslim knew. Everyone celebrating should know

If I’m wrong, then imagine if he had done his job and asked the appropriate next question that should’ve been asked

Do you vote?

This is easily believed

Half the population are stupid to the core, government public schools have brain washed the past two or so generations. Liberal media told them for decades now that men humping each other is something to be proud of while the same government imported half the third world here and continue to do so.

All while the same government now rides shotgun, escorting freight trains full of illegals and others from who knows where. Government has made American citizenship all but pointless.

The American population is being incrementally replaced by an ignorant low wage population who are quite happy with token government freebies, who never question the ruling class who controls them.

You have got to be shi$$ing me. Did you leave off your sarc notation. If not, you graduated in the same schools as these ignorant people. I can understand some of the apparent foreigners in the video but if you were born here and do not know that essential bit of US history, this country is doomed.

Exactly!

Unless the respondents were chosen randomly, the sample is not representative. It’s entertainment, not research.
