" We are a nation bound by ideas only. We have no common ancestry, no common religion, no common military victory or defeat, no common crime that binds us. If you don't teach those ideas to every new generation of Americans with wit and rigor, we are not bound."
-Richard Dreyfuss

"We are a nation bound by ideas only"
-Richard Dreyfuss

"America is hard and it doesn't happen by itself. If you think things like, "There's nothing I can do", stick around and learn how much power you have. This country is a miracle and the whole world knows it except Americans because we don't teach it.
-Richard Dreyfuss

If it's a civics course then you FAIL.

The United States IS NOT a democracy. The United Stales is a "Constitutional Republic".

Oh, sorry, jwhop, I should've added "(drips with sarcasm)" somewhere for your benefit. Still it's nice he wants people to educate themselves. Perhaps he will figure out that basic fact soon

What makes you think he hasn't already "figured it out"?

I understand your desire to have brain dead America hating Marxist morons educate American youths, however, once they get out from under the thumbs of their Marxist professors, they begin to think for themselves.

You jump on me for calling our country a Democracy, when I was pointing out the fallacy in Dreyfuss's presentation..

Yet you are oh so hopeful that he will learn and become a conservative that you didn't mind that that is HIS classification of our form of government, not mine.

I know this is no democracy but Dreyfuss apparently does not.

It seems from your remarks, that you didn't bother to read much of your own link . Why did you post it? Do you think because he went on Fox he has suddenly become a Conservative? He is fed up with politics as football.

As am I, but it feels a little Disneyesque the way he is going about it...and has at least one glaring ERROR in its prologue...

Still, as I said,(not sarcastically) it's nice that he sees and wants to fill the gap in people's knowledge of what being an American citizen entails.

Do you think he sees that empty spot on the Republican ticket in '16?
