If the blogger is truly a conservative he should know that Dreyfuss is the worst kind of leftest. His call for civics education is a ruse. The debate will be all left sided.
I honestly don’t know what Dreyfuss’ political affiliation is; I’m simply responding to his words and what he said. Taken at face value though he’s got a great point: we have done a very poor job of educating students in terms of the true history of this country and on civics.
Kids today don’t have the common sense of a wet noodle. Schools don’t teach students HOW to learn, they simply teach a set of facts necessary to pass standardized tests.
