It’s become obvious that there is massive failure of American Schools to educate the American people.

In a recent Congressional hearing, the U.S. Secretary of Education, Dr. Michael Cardona, was asked if he could “define what a woman is”... he couldn’t answer the question.

Even one of our Supreme Court Justices, Ketani Brown Jackson, in her confirmation hearings last year with the U.S. Senate said that she was unable to define what a “woman” is.

This represents a complete break-down in Education. When our national leaders don’t even know the facts of basic biology, no wonder so many of our students are confused and struggling with Gender Dysphoria. Its obvious our schools are failing to teach our students the scientific facts necessary to have a healthy self- identity.

This explains why, in a recent survey, 20.8 % of Generation Z identify as LGBTQ, compared to only .8% of Baby Boomers. (Statista Research Department, Feb 23, 2023) This is a very serious problem. Over 20% of today’s youth don’t even know whether they are men or women. No wonder there is such an increase in depression, suicidality and other mental health issues. No wonder our student Academic scores are declining.

A good education is essential to the survival of our nation.

Socrates said, “Democracy is only as good as the education that surrounds it.”

If what Pres Franklin D. Roosevelt said is true, that “The real safeguard of democracy is education.” then our nation is in serious danger.

If we don’t solve this problem soon, China won’t have to invade us. America will collapse from within. We have got to get back to teaching history, teaching science and teaching the facts about human biology and other essentials.
