Just watch one of those shows where the reporter hits the streets to ask questions a first grader could answer.
Many don't know the difference between WWII and the Civil War. Some can't identify a photo of Thomas Jefferson.

Here are two videos from a few years back. Funny, but at the same time it is pathetic and sad. Welcome to the new America, well, at least we have another federal holiday ...... Happy Juneteenth!

I remember years ago Jay Leno doing his skit of asking people on the street random basic history questions. Going up to a stereotypical surfer dude and asking "when was the War of 1812?", his response "Dude, I don't even know!"
