Not a surprise at all. Most people know the President and that is about it. And the only reason they know the President is because he is mentioned all the time. Otherwise they wouldn’t know him either. Americans are very ignorant with regards to history and government. I often talk to my neighbors about current events in government and half the time before I start I have to explain who the people are before they can begin to understand the story. And these are basically intelligent people in good careers. It is crazy how the majority of Americans go through life without knowledge of how our country is run........Now sometimes I think it is better....no worries for them. lol.

What’s really scary is that the dumbest 10% of those that even bother to vote (50-60% in national elections) are supposedly the ones that decide elections. The so-called swing voters who vote one way and then another, and can’t really articulate why or if they can it’s a stupid reason. That’s why all the campaign money is spent to convince them, because they are swayable.
