Only 35%. The democrats have work to do. It should be 100%.

How many billions do we spend on education for such piss poor results? I bet if they narrowed it down between conservatives vs. liberals they would find a sharp divide of results. The dumbed down populace natually gravitates to the Dems for the most part but education rich liberal jews love their socialism beyond all.
That is so easy, who does not know it is Local, State and Federal. Geez.
Considering we’re up to one person in eight being an illegal alien, (about 40,000,000 by now), it is amazing they were able to conduct the survey in English. No sane country would bring in so many unassimilated people or allow them to enter.
The Republic may indeed be doomed and the govt union run education system is certainly the executioner.
Wondering if our politicians, as a whole would fare any better in the same poll?? As President, Obama is now trying to do his old Legislator job instead of acting like head of Executive branch in charge of enforcing the laws and securing the border... Our Legislative branch represents their interests more than the people that sent them there and the top of the Judicial chain does not seem to consistently care much about constitionality any more either. The real slap in the face to our founding fathers is that none of our current politicians from either party seem to give a damn about the system of checks and balances that the 3 branches go along with either.
Horrible.. Ask them, however, who Brad Pitt is married to and see how many know the answer. I don’t have a tv so I think the answer is Matt Damon.
Yeah, but ask about justin beeber’s latest exploit and they all know.
We are doomed and cannot regain what we have lost - He has made the edict and His Word will be done.
We can gyrate around and get excited about politics and the destruction of the moral fiber that used to bind things together, but we cannot set things right. Knowing this helps me sleep at night because I feel helpless to try to right the wrongs being committed against us by the Left and those who support it.
Were the word ‘lastly’ an animal I would take it out behind the barn and shoot it.

Never mind 500 years. We are already there. Welcome to Idiocracy.
That is an ill-rational conclusion, the survey results just say what we have long known from on the spot interviews. Most people particularly New Yorkers are profoundly ignorant and disinterested in the details of their country.
This is more a statement of the distractions of everyday life than anything else. The problem is when theses people are coned into voting without bothering to make themselves informed.
The long and short answer is theses people will only take the time to get informed when things start to get back from them and it is obviously the Governments fount. Until then their own personal lives and jobs take up all their attention and time and frankly that is a highly desirable way to live, even thou its a bit civily shortsighted.
Only a temporary setback. If it wasn't for the home schoolers screwing up the curve, that number could have been much lower.
Obviously, home schooling should be declared a subversive, terrorist activity and made illegal and then we can get those percentages back down around Zero where they should be.
When the non-decadent states secede and set up an ascendant republic, U.S. history, government, and the Constitution will be required study in all schools.
This is why we need to have basic governmental knowledge testing for voting eligibility. Anyone who doesn’t have a basic understanding of how our government is structured and works would not be eligible to vote. Period. And for all levels of government (local, state, federal).
I mentioned on a thread several weeks ago, how the people I worked with could not name the three branches of government, yet thought themselves to be politically astute, I remember thinking at the time someone should do a survey.
Republic yes.....but we will usher in something else. i.e. New PAX AMERICA
But thet can name every player on their fave sports team or can name each of the Kardashian sisters. Priorities!
