(1:) Read a "Reader's Digest" of the 1950's.
Compare and contrast with the 2011 version.
(2:)Read a "Hardy Boys" or "Nancy Drew" of the 1930's.
Compare and contrast with the 2011 version.
(3:)Read an American History textbook from a 1940's High School.
Compare and contrast with a 2011 "Social Studies" book from the Public High School nearest your home.
(4:) Then in your report to the class, tell us how the American public has been so dumbed down, that the election of this Affirmative Action Anus was a done deal in 2008, and actually could happen again.
Very good. Made me smile this AM.
