Conclusion,+Findings

After seeing such horrifying statistics, one has to take a step back and look at the broader scope of the current state of American knowledge of politics and political issues. The statistics are not meant to make all Americans look unintelligent and enforce certain American stereotypes – they are intended to show the American people the inexistence of knowledge in the spectrums of politics and key issues. Americans are intelligent people, and it must be noted that just because someone is not aware of political issues does not mean they are not intelligent - it just happens to be that their intelligences lie in certain areas, areas that they are interested in and have been taught throughout there lives. Furthermore, American media pounds into American people the importance of American pop culture, representing the ill state of the media’s focus. This reflects the necessary action that schools and our society are not taking, putting a fire under Americans to learn more about political and key issues, be them domestic or foreign.
