12. They don't even know American History, they come out with the stupidest stuff

about it. I specialize in the Revolutionary War and the things people say . I have to say, well, that's not exactly right 80% of the time. They left grade school with an education that was stunted and didn't expand it in HS.

Revolutionary War blends to the Civil War. We've seen that with the misappropriation of the Declaration of Independence. They don't seem to know that it was a letter written to King George III.
