30 years of teaching history proved to me that no one has learned a damn thing in an American high school since the late 1980s. What's worse, what little the current generation "knows" ain't so.

Bless you for teaching history. It is so very important. My daughter is in AP History this year (my undergrad degree is History) and she loves it. We're having great conversations. There's still hope.

As a history buff I find this sad that younger people get so angry about political issues yet have no grounding in what makes our country great.

My wife and I watched this with our 12 year old. We would pause the video and see if he knew the answers. He thought we were joking. Once he knew we weren't he answered way better than those folks did.

It would be interesting to get a statistical analysis of the answers. It took four days to get enough outtakes to make a 4 minute video?

Love your interviews but found this one particularly sad - young people without a grounding in the basics of American history. They don’t know where we have been as a nation so we can’t be surprised at their misguided world views today. The education system must do better.

Maybe we as parents should be teaching our children and NOT rely so much on the schools.

Actually, the first President of the US was John Hanson. He was the first President and elected under the Articles of Confederation in 11/1781. http://tinyurl.com/y4ctnl7h
