Obviously, young Americans should have some level of familiarity with the U.S. Constitution. If I were designing a high school curriculum, I’d make it a part of U.S. History.
Of course, that was a serious answer to a rhetorical and politically motivated question. The thinly veiled accusation here is that colleges need to accept some level of limitation on their cranking out liberals, who, the allegation continues, have no respect for or interest in the Constitution.

For a society to be productive, happy and sustainable, it must be one built on mutual respect and cooperation; this won’t happen in an environment of mistrust, hate, and racially motivated violence.
