      The vast majority of teachers in public schools have received a Marxist shaded education. This, in turn with what they have consumed on the internet has made them believe America should be fundamentally changed.
      Unfortunately, the days of being proud of the USA heritage and the freedoms it has afforded our prior generations seem to be over.
      As a 60 year old natural born citizen, I still believe in the ideals of America but it seems people like me are becoming a minority in our great country.

    This film is from 1950 and the WB logo and the main title is missing, but all they got is the full complete version of the 1956 Films Incorporated logo. I wonder if the full opening title with the WB logo exists. I hope maybe one day if TCM will air a fully restored print of “50 Years Before Your Eyes” with the WB logo.

    4 min the infamous 15x15 American flag of Francis Scott Key fame. Better known by its only lyrics, "o say can you see" repeating over and over in time w the musical score. There are 3 verses of just repeating "o say can you see". This makes it easy enough for Yankees fans to remember before a game called baseball.

Weird, if the US couldn't have landed on the moon without them, then how come the countries where they are the majority in the Americas are not doing well? How come Bolivia cannot do things Canada, the US and Europe can? Oh right, its because Europeans did it without their help and its just another way to diminish Euro accomplishments.

      The Indians had nothing to do with it; they did not possess the land. They camped on the land, but they did not possess it. Namely, they dwelled in wigwams - temporary shelters; they did not build great towns like the advanced civilizations of the Aztecs or Incas or Mayans. To illustrate, the Aztecs were Indian people of Central Mexico noted for their advanced civilization before Cortes invaded Mexico in 1519. On the other hand, the Wampanoags were still camping in wigwams in 1620. Furthermore, the Indian could not write. Every great ancient civilization had some form of writing. To put it another way, the Wampanoags were “the low man on the totem pole” because of their lack of cultural achievements.

    at 4:25, the man is quoted as saying " give me liberty or give me death" . well...that's not really what he said. you see, he was a drug addict, and what he said was " give me librium, or give me meth!" but one of the founding fathers could NOT go down in history as saying THAT, so they spun it into "give me libery or give me death!" .
