The majority of americans can't explain what the bill of rights is.
24 % could not name who America fought in the revolutionary war.
2/3 does not know the content of rowers vs wade.
Half of Americans do not know states has two senators.
More than half can’t name their congressman.
The average voter thinks foreign aid consumes 24 % of the federal budget(actually less than 1 %)
