Yes, they are. Nobody teaches the kids anything about civics, government, American history, anymore.

Oh, let’s just ‘ask’ the Electoral College to DO something...

LOL!

No. They don't. All they teach is Howard Zinn. Trust me. I know because I have a daughter in high school, and I am appalled at the indoctrination they dump on these kids in American history class.

I helped her get through her junior year class by working closely with her on her assignments. She learned to research counter arguments and write papers disagreeing with the teacher. Fortunately, even though he is a big Howard Zinn disciple, he gave her straight "A"s because she made such good arguments and backed them up with research. I'm very happy she had that experience, because it taught her to think and how to separate the BS from actual facts. But unfortunately, the other students don't have Freeper dads. So she is pretty much the only Trump supporter in her whole school. She voted for the first time on Tuesday, and was very psyched to vote for Trump.

We watched the election results together, and she learned a ton about the EC and the process, none of which she would have learned had she been left to the indoctrination progam of her school without me to give her the other side.
