When all this is over, we need to pass a law that every state require at least half a year’s civics education in middle school or high school on the basics of the US Constitution. It’s terrifying how many Americans seem not to have a clue.

We should pass that law now. Why wait?

There is a difference between educating and indoctrinating. Our schools have become indoctrination centers for just one point of view... anti-American. This must stop!

Few people look at themselves and need to be reminded them, you ! you are the best one!

Next you'll want them to teach about history too!

You have done a great job. Poor children have the same right to get education as other children.

Absolutely! As well as Voting/Policy 101! "Democracy Is Not A Spectator Sport"! @Thom_Hartmann

We can’t even fund the school system or hire enough teachers. The entire infrastructure is crumbling. We’re fighting battles about school choice, teacher pay, class size, and voucher programs.

Already a standard in many states. The fact that elected officials don't appear to have studied the Constitution is even more terrifying.

A million x yes!!

Some people would be amazed at this, but that is something that most Trump supporters, and virtually all cue followers, can get behind.
