The beginning od the downfall of America was the late 1960’s. All the virtuous, and traditional things we held dear were trashed.
The liberals in my jr. HS immediately picked up the leftist ball, and ran with it(1967-69). In senior HS, it grew “progressively” worse. By the time I graduated in 1972, the transition to leftism was almost complete.
From 1972-1976, I watched most of the young professors move decidedly to the left. By the late 1970’s those young leftist professors became “tenured radicals”. They eventually moved up in rank and power, and most often hired only their own......conservatives need not apply. By the mid 1980’s, the left had complete control of most universities. The “dumbing down” of America was at full throttle. Now in 2012, it is a near hopeless cause,as we have NO leadership on our side.

My time frame is close to yours; you are correct. I was fortunate to go to non-public grade and high schools that were way behind the times in what and how they taught. In college I was a science major, and science hadn't been infiltrated . . . yet. Now in NJ the state college of medicine BOASTS of an Office of Diversity!

Yes, I agree. I watched the same thing.

When I saw JFK get SElected, I knew it was all a corrupt process then. I just didn’t want to believe it.
