Profebster, unfortunately I have to agree with you to a certain extent. If you were to stop people on the street and asked them to simply name the three branches of our government and define or describe the balance of powers afforded in The Constitution... they would probably only be able to answer after googling it on their iPhone's.
On the other hand, I have been perturbed by long time political pundits blaming the electorate and not acknowledging their own complicity with creating the current two party stranglehold over our country.
I hope your class will be one of thousands upon thousands that will educate and bring the current political climate back to some sort of reality. I also pray that it would help people become more interested in how their country works and is run so that we can maintain the freedoms that have made the United States prosperous, safe and powerful.
