"I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power." - Thomas Jefferson 1820

"There is a growing technology of testing that permits us now to do in nanoseconds things that we shouldn't be doing at all." - Dr. Gerald Bracey author of Rotten Apples in Education

America, We're in Real Trouble.

The Fourth of July: "It's like...our day, you know".

Serious question: should there be a test of basic American historical facts given before citizens are allowed to vote?

This is some incredible footage. If our country continues on its current path toward financial implosion, nationalization, and law through mandates and regulations, let's all move to California and at least enjoy the beach. We can enjoy the surf and sun, drink beer, and celebrate a day off work or school.

That's what is really important anyway, right?

    short answer ...yes there should be a test prior to voting, but are not the schools teaching what they should teach about American history??? if not then parents should be able to remove there children form that school, and enroll them in a school that teaches real American history, rather than self esteem, and agenda history. fyi glenn beck founders fridays was excellent, and accurate.
