....I’ve seen this movie before....in ‘72 so many kids worked for McGovern in the primaries that one wag in the the press called it “The Children’s Crusade”....of course, if a remark like that was said today few would know what he was talking about....such is the level of cultural literacy.

Not cultural literacy really, but just plain literacy. Nobody reads books anymore in this generation, except Harry Potter or some similar trash. When it comes to history, they are almost wholly ignorant about all but the most basic outline of American history, if that.
